Riffarrica (Estonia)

Truly unique and wow, are they powerful, this unique duo from Estonia will blow you and your audiences away.

Born in 2016. Kulno Malva and Kristjan Priks, both experienced folk musicians, joined forces to make vigorous and masculine folk music, drawing inspiration from centuries-old folktale songs. The combination of Kulno's raspy vocals, dynamic accordion grooves and the sound of Kristjan's distinctive drum kit gave birth to an ultrafresh sound "Folk with muscle" as Baltic Music News so aptly named it.

"Accordion, vocals and percussion create a sound that you'd never associate with just two musicians - with a little help from some electronic gadgets, the accordion starts to screech like a hard rock guitar or obtains a tonal ambience as rich as that of a grand piano, to emphasise the strong groove which is an unmistakable trademark of the duo."
