BOANN was born in 2005 with the idea of blending Celtic and Nordic music. Thanks to their 2 previous albums "OLD CELTIC & NORDIC BALLADS" and "OLD CELTIC & NORDIC LULLABIES" (Label Prikosnovenie / Distribution Coop Breizh) Boann has performed all over France and abroad and has met with real success: over 1 million views on YOUTUBE and millions of streams.
The Twa Sisters is a traditional Anglo-Scottish musical tale that has its equivalent in Scandinavia, De Tva Systrarna, since the 16th century, a legend in which a magical harp unravels the intrigue of a love triangle: two sisters and a mysterious knight.
The musicians of BOANN showcase a plethora of instruments: Celtic harps, smallpipes, Swedish nyckelharpa, Finnish kantele, Norwegian hardingfele, Nordic mandolins, Irish bodhràn, Gallic lyre, guitars, all of which are aesthetic, sound, and historical treasures.
The arrangements of BOANN make these songs attractive to a contemporary audience, alternating between icy atmospheres and the fire of dances, clear voices and strange instruments.
