French Nordic folk collective Skáld have been forced to postpone their first-ever North American tour, which was set to start on April 12th in New York City. The outing now happens later this year, kicking off on September 8th in Chicago. See the new dates below.
Skáld state:
“Dear North America 🇺🇸 We will be coming to you but a little later than planned. Our concerts have been postponed to next September. We were too optimistic about the time to get our visas! Tickets: skald.lnk.to/live
Those already purchased are valid for new dates. Contact your local box office if you would like a refund. Please note: the venue in Boston has changed. We can’t wait to come!”

In addition, Skáld recently shared a new music video for their single “Elverhøy” (“Elf”), which comes off their fresh effort ‘Huldufólk‘ on Decca Records France / Decca Records U.S. (UMG). Check out the clip below.
““Elverhøy” is about a young woman who meets two young elves who drag her into a hellish round and promise to give her the knowledge of runes,” notes Skáld’s mastermind Christophe Voisin-Boisvinet. “The music is a continuation of the text with its dancing form and is punctuated by nyckelharpa solos.”
