Hedningarna is a Swedish band, playing Nordic folk-rock. "Hedningarna" is Swedish for "the pagans" or "the heathens". They combine traditional instrumentation and lyrics - with occasional help from Finnish singers - and modern technology. Current Hedningarna members are Hållbus Totte Mattson (lute, hurdy-gurdy, mandora, mora-oud, etc), Anders Norrudde (violin, hardingfela, moraharp, basmoraharp, stringed harp, swedish bagpipe, willowflute, cow- and goathorn), Magnus Stinnerbom (viola, hurdy-gurdy etc) and Christian Svensson (percussion and sampler). Former band members include Tellu Turkka, Sanna Kurki-Suonio, Anita Lehtola-Tollin, Liisa Matveinen (vocals), Björn Tollin (percussion, programming, samples) and Ulf Ivarsson (bass). http://www.silence.se/hedningarna/index.html
