Sara Parkman

Sara Parkman

Sara Parkman has been played on NTS shows including SKYAPNEA, with Berget first played on 16 August 2019.

Sara Parkman is a folk musician known to both question and embrace traditions in such an unabashed and simultaneously thoughtful way, that one could say that she has created her own musical universe – and that by doing so, she has become the great poster name of contemporary Swedish folk music. Thanks to her two acclaimed solo albums, it is to be expected since some time that one can hear her music pulsate from the foggy depths of nordic forests during nocturnal rave parties – and equally expected to see her perform live in popular TV programs.

Violinist, singer and composer: three words that describe Sara Parkman. However, they are not enough to cover the width of what she has achieved during her career, which already stretches over more than 15 years. Her debut album as a solo artist was entitled Sara Parkmans Skog (2016), and it was awarded ‘Artist of the year’ at Folk & Världsmusikgalan, a Swedish gala to celebrate folk and world music. But Sara Parkman's most acclaimed release to date was 2019's Vesper. Named after the Christian evening prayer, this album was an exploration of the sacred through music. It was received by unanimously impressed critics and earned her a Swedish Grammy nomination as well as the newspaper Dagens Nyheter's Culture Prize.
