Kerstin Blodig Kerstin
grew up listening to classical music before going on to take recorder
and piano lessons. Parallel to this she was always singing, and became
a member of various choirs, later a bluegrass band and her first Celtic
project, the Scottish band SÍOBHRA, where she developed further
skills on guitar, mandoline and bouzouki.
After school she studied musicology and Scandinavian languages and cultures in Berlin (Germany) and in Bergen (Norway), with particular emphasis on Norwegian folk music. Today she tours all over the world with a wide variety of different projects, ranging from studio work and theatre-music productions to the Celtic groups TOUCHWOOD with Belfast musician Cristina Crawley, TALKING WATER and NORLAND WIND (featuring Thomas Loefke and Clannad-members Pádraig and Noel Duggan). She cultivates her Norwegian roots not only in her Celtic-Scandinavian World Music project VALIVANN and in solo performances, but also in the duo Kelpie featuring the Scottish guitarist Ian Melrose. |
