ABOUT
BIOGRAPHY
Ravn is a multi-instrumentalist, composer, and music producer.
His Dark Folk project, founded in 2021, weaves ancient echoes of Slavic heritage into haunting instrumental soundscapes rooted in the mysticism of Old World traditions, tales, and legends.
Using historical folk instruments such as the gudok, balalaika, moraharpa, tagelharpa, rebec, saz, gusli, frame drums, bones, antlers, and seed shakers, he creates a unique atmosphere charged with raw energy.
Each piece is a fragment of forgotten folklore, a wild and immersive journey into the darkest forests of Eastern Europe.
Alongside his solo work, Ravn has performed and recorded with renowned artists in the folk scene.
In 2022, Ravn joined the band Skáld as a live and session musician for their album Huldufólk (2023) and international tours between 2022 and 2024.
He also contributed as a session musician to Kati Ran’s album Sála (2024), further expanding his creative voice within the realm of contemporary folk music.
