Hello America :)

Sweet Home Chicago!

I’ve transplanted from Norway to my new home in the cozy North West side of Chicago. I’m getting settled in and am excited to say that I have several new projects in the works. Part of acclimating to full time living here has brought me to the Chicago Spelemannslag and the monthly Scandinavian jam session. There’s a growing group of musicians with an interest in Scandinavian folk music in Chicago. The trad Irish sessions are also thriving, here and in Milwaukee.

In the near future my music studio will be open for business. If you, or someone you know is, interested in learning more about Norwegian/Scandinavian folk music, harding fiddle, regular fiddle, DADGAD guitar or Greek bouzouki contact me for lessons or engagements.

I’ll be posting more soon!
Best,
Vidar 🙂
