Wardruna is back with a new album Birna due out January 2025, and a new single "Himinndotter" streaming right now. The single comes alongside a video directed by Tuukka Koski and filmed in Rondane National Park in Norway.
"'Himinndotter' is part of a six-song exploration of the bear on Wardruna's upcoming album Birna," said Wardruna vocalist Einar Selvik. "The title plays on the globally common notion of the bear's mythical origin as a celestial being. 'Himinndotter' features a guest appearance of the Norwegian choir Koret Artemis."
Pre-orders for Birna are available here. Wardruna has a boatload of tour dates coming up throughout 2024 and 2025, all kicked off by a show at Red Rocks with Chelsea Wolfe. Tickets are available here.
