Origins Festival: Just Another Sami

Gamvik, an old Sámi fishing village far out on the North coast of Norway. Here the indigenous Sámi people lived for thousands of years, herding reindeer, wearing their koftas, speaking their language, singing their yoiks. Today, all of that has gone. In fact, many Sámi don’t even know that they are Sámi at all….

Join Håkon Mathias Vassvik and his haunting band, Torgeir Vassvik and Kari Rønnekleiv, as they reconnect with the indigenous culture of the Arctic. Performed in English.
