Nordic Pop

Nordic Pop (2026) began as a one-off project featuring pop music from artists including Lykke Li, Robyn Björk, Laufey, Sigur Rós, and Aurora, held at Seattle’s gorgeous Nordic Museum. Five singers from Seattle pop, jazz, rock, and theater scene were accompanied by members of Splinter Percussion and the Raven String Quartet. This part concert, part dance party, was a wild success and led to the second iteration of Nordic Pop in 2027, in collaboration with Seattle Theatre Group. This version will be held at Seattle’s historic Neptune Theatre.
