Sinikka Langeland

Soundcheck | May 3, 2010
On her new album, "Starflowers," Finnish folk singer Sinikka Langeland mixes traditional sounds -- such as the kantele, a table harp -- with Nordic jazz. Her lyrics are drawn from the poetry of a 20th-century forest wood-cutter. She performs live in our studio.
