Symbio is regarded as one of the most prominent new bands from the Nordic Folk & World music scene. With a magical interplay of hurdy-gurdy & accordion, an electrifying stage presence and captivating original compositions - the duo has become known as a phenomenon having toured in more than 20 countries.

Hearing this symphonic duo makes you doubt about the fact that they are only two musicians on stage. The musical world of Symbio is mesmerizing and soulful -
where virtuoso folk & electronic dance music meet and becomes a cinematic experience for the listener.

Johannes Geworkian Hellman: hurdy-gurdy, electronics

LarsEmil Öjeberget: accordion, stompboxes, electronics

Hurdy-gurdy and accordion have always been a popular combination, but what Johannes Geworkian Hellman and Lars Emil Öjeberget deliver on their third album takes these instruments to a new level. Their compositions are elegiac, dreamy, wallowing in great imaginative, cinematic melodies, then mesmerizing again and the next moment pulsating, exciting and emotionally touching. They create a sound cosmos in which the two musicians form a truly symbiotic unit and become soul mates” - FOLKER music magazine (DE)
