With their debut album nominated for a Canadian Folk Music Award for Instrumental Group of the Year, Medusa are reimagining the Western string quartet and creating something magical in the process.
Their electrifying connection is transmuted through a common string language, a love of obscure folk fiddles, and their personal stories of navigating society’s liminal spaces.
Aiming to bring back what has been cast out, they resurrect the suka, the płock fiddle, and the nyckelharpa – near-forgotten traditional folk fiddles that were rejected for centuries in their home countries of Poland and Sweden.
“Medusa shred strings virtuosically, fusing the past & present, inviting all listeners to smile, dance, and be mesmerized”
