The Old Fabled River brings together acclaimed Scottish folk artist Alasdair Roberts and the ensemble Völvur in a striking collaboration released by Drag City in 2021. Recorded in London, the album weaves traditional folk influences with a spirit of innovation, creating a sound both rooted in history and refreshingly forward-looking.
This evocative collection explores themes of unity and the rhythms of life, with arrangements that blend Roberts' lyricism and Norwegian fiddler Hans Kjorstad’s deft musicianship. The release includes a printed inner sleeve and stands as a testament to the enduring power of folk music to bridge cultures and eras.
