The Norwegian folk duo Darling West is comprised of husband and wife Mari Sandvær Kreken and Tor Egil Kreken. Their music has been described as roots-inspired, indie pop, and “cosmic folk.” They stopped by the studio to play some music and share their latest album.
Norwegian married couple Mari and Tor Egil Kreken are always so captivating and, well, surprising with the sonic directions they take with their music. Their harmonies are sublime, they show terrific instrumentation on guitar, banjo, mandolin and more, and their influences seem to come from Nashville and from Appalachia as much as from Northern Europe. Friday marks the release date of a new album, “Cosmos”. We’re pleased to welcome them back to Studio B on Wednesday (no concerts in the area, just a radio station tour.)
