Väsen - Essence (1993)
"Heavyweights in the nordic folk music scene, Väsen are a Swedish group combining the talents of Olov Johansson (nyckelharpa), Mikael Marin (viola), Roger Tallroth (guitar) and André Ferrari (percussion). The band has also released a number of albums as a trio without Ferrari." (Last.fm)
For those of you who have heard Väsen's album with Mike Marshall and Darol Anger, track 12 may sound familiar... for those of you who have not, I may put that up next. :)
