“You hear the troubled souls of Nick Cave and David Eugene Edwards rest through out the entire production.”
GAFFA, Magnus Sjöberg

When music gives you the shivers and sweeps you off to another world. Wow. A Swedish treasure.“
AFTONBLADET Rebecka Ljung


“These are people who makes another album
only when they’ve got something new to say,
and it really speaks to me. Magnificently.”
Andrew Cronshaw fRoots

The music drifts away to the same landscape as in John Bauer’s 1800-century paintings. Fog descends upon the forest. The moss is heavy dark green. The rock formations are troll grey.

Cecilia Österholm and Maria Arnqvist made music to SVT’s acclaimed Astrid Lindgren documentary. It’s a given input, if Astrid Lindgren and her characters personify the old Sweden the duo Siri Karlsson picture the new country. While SD, UKIP and the National Front fuss about what is Swedish, British and French Siri Karlsson have created the most Swedish music right now ... The Lost Colony is a gift from multiculturalism. A multiculturalism prize and should be praised by that.
Daniel Horn, GAFFA















Siri Karlsson's soundscape is a brew of electroacoustic sounds created by an odd mix of instruments such as key harp, synths, saxophone and voice. Influences from near and far are boiled down to a suggestive universe with tentacles to psychedelia, progressive rock, avant garde, noise and folk music.

Siri Karlsson is a duo consisting of Maria Arnqvist on saxophone, synthesizers and voice, and Cecilia Österholm on keyed fiddles, voice and synthesizer.

Siri Karlsson performs as a duo and with band, depending on venue.
