Biography
Band born of the collaboration between Ivar Bjørnson of Enslaved and Einar Selvik of Wardruna. Full-length album 'A Piece for Mind & Mirror' was released on March 11, 2016 through Season of Mist. Written by Bjørnson and Selvik for the 200th anniversary of the Norwegian Constitution, Skuggsjá tells the history of Norway to the present day by highlighting ideas, traditions and instruments of their Norse past. In a magnificent tapestry of metal instrumentation, a wide variety of Norway and Scandinavia’s oldest instruments, and poetry in Proto-Scandinavian, Norse and Norwegian, Skuggsjá fuses past and present, both lyrically and musically, and reflects on themselves as a people and nation.
