Kraja is a quartet consisting of four singers from Umeå: Linnea Nilsson, Eva Lestander, Lisa Lestander and Frida Johansson. They formed the group in 2001 and have quickly developed their music-making to an impressive level and built up a rich repertoire of traditional hymns, comical songs, love songs and lilted dance tunes. Many of the songs are taken from the local tradition of Västerbotten, some are from other parts of Scandinavia and some are newly composed. Kraja have arranged all the songs for four voices – elegant, harmonious and very beautiful. They have captured audiences around Sweden for some years now and now it is time for their debut album, filled with Kraja’s many-faceted vocal music.
