Biography

Hekla Stålstrenga, a Norwegian folk band specializing in North Norwegian traditional music, was formed in 2008 as a duo by fiddler Ragnhild Furebotten and guitarist Tore Bruvoll. The band's initial breakthrough came with their first recording, for which they were nominated for "Best Folk Music/Gammaldans" at the Spellemannprisen, the Norwegian Grammies. They later expanded to a five-member band, adding lead vocalist Anne Nymo Trulsen, drummer Ole-Jakob Larsen, and acoustic bassist Trond-Viggo Solas. Their debut album Makramé, released in 2011 on the Ta:lik label, charted in VG-lista, the official Norwegian Albums Chart, and earned them another Spellemannprisen nomination for "Best Folk Music/Traditional Music." The band continued to release albums including Dyrandé (2013), Hjertebank (2014), Ventetid (2016), and Velkommen inn (2017). Notable singles include "Folketonen" (2012) and "Båtbygger Jo" (2013). Various band members also pursued solo careers, with Anne Nymo Trulsen releasing her debut album Skråblikk in 2013.
