Each with a common background in classical music, the three women simultaneously discovered folk music in 2010 through different folk and world music camps. Apart from studies in traditional music at Danish National Academy of Music they all studied music abroad; both Maja and Clara went to Skurups Folkhögskola in Sweden, Elisabeth studied Indian Classical violin for 1,5 years in New Delhi and Maja’s curiosity for groovy ways to play the cello has drawn her to the U.S.
These different musical influences and interests bring unique qualities to the sound of Vesselil; Clara – hugely connected to the dance feeling of the music, Maja – both singing and playing with power and groove and the long stretched phrases from Elisabeth.
With an unusual presence and devotion to the music, vivid and elegant musical arrangements and their swinging and energetic performance, the trio has impressed and touched a wide audience around Denmark, Finland, Germany and Switzerland counting festivals like Musik Over Præstø Fjord (DK), Copenhagen Jazz Festival, CPH World Music Festival (DK), Kaustinen Folk Festival (FIN) folkBALTICA (DE), Tanz & Folk Festival Berlin (DE) and Buskers Bern (CH).
