Wardruna

When: 25th March 2025
Location: SEC Armadillo

Wardruna are rousing dark folk, enlightening tales inspired by Nordic runes and folklore. Coming to Glasgow’s SEC Armadillo on 25th March 2025.

Wardruna is the long musical project of Einar Selvik, aka Kvitrafn, which for the past two decades has created highly atmospheric dark folk that draws on runes and other Nordic traditions.

Formed in 2003 by Selvik, Gaahl and Lindy-Fay Hella – the latter of whom still performs in Wardruna – the band released their debut Runaljod – Gap var ginnunga in 2009. The first in the Runaljod trilogy, the album drew on ancient runes and was sung in Norwegian, Proto Norse and Old Norse. The band was, then, a natural fit as composers of the second series of Vikings. After the Runaljod trilogy, Wardruna released Skald in 2018 and Kvitravn in 2021.

In April 2024 the band announced UK and Ireland dates for March 2025 as part of a world tour.
