About this Event
Don't Miss Contemporary Folk trio MAAR Live in Colne!
MAAR is the latest endeavour from Ösp Eldjárn, Valeria Pozzo, and Helga Ragnars. Two-thirds Icelandic, one-third Italian, the trio first crossed paths in London in 2011, when a chance house-share sparked a lasting musical connection.After years of collaborating and performing in each other’s solo projects, the three songwriters have joined forces to create MAAR. In the summer of 2024, they retreated to a cabin in rural Iceland, and wrote the songs that appear on the The Wave EP, released in June 2026.MAAR's music is characterised by three-part vocal harmony, intimate lyrics, and acoustic instrumentation. At the heart of their sound is the interplay of the voices, creating a dynamic and harmonious identity that’s uniquely their own. Shaped by collaboration and friendship, MAAR's songs flow like a conversation between close friends.The trio will tour the UK in October 2026, and are currently working on their first full album.
