About the event

NFB Fiddle Camp 2025
There are many different fiddle styles found throughout the Nordic region. The Nordic Fiddlers Bloc represent 4 of these and are very knowledgeable about their respective traditions and styles.
Olav Luksengård Mjelva (Norway), Anders Hall (Sweden) and Kevin Henderson (Shetland Islands) have been touring as The Nordic Fiddlers Bloc since 2009 and have taken their unique brand of music to many parts of the globe.

The first NFB Fiddle Camp was held in 2018 in Røros, Norway. After that we have been in Järvsö (SE) in 2019, Voss (NO) in 2023 and Røros again in 2024. All of the camps have been a lot of fun!
In 2025 we go back to Sweden, and the camp will be held at the amazing Eric Sahlström Institute in Tobo.
The institute will be our home for three days of workshops, activities, food, drink and late night jam sessions!

The fiddle camp will offer an intensive daily timetable of three instrumental lessons with Olav, Anders and Kevin as well as other activities to be announced.
The workshops will be aimed at 3 different levels: intermediate, higher intermediate and advanced. The learning will be done by ear.

The camp will have space for 50-60 people so it is recommended that people sign up quickly to avoid disappointment!
