Swedish folk music group

Raun's music is based on heavy percussion together with drones and singing. The musicians come from various musical backgrounds and together they try to find a primeval musical sound. Some of the songs are newly composed, others are traditional, but they have all been remolded by Raun into their blend of modern urban rhythms and ancient rural traditions. Raun consists of Helena Ek, vocals and fiddle, Magnus Ek, percussion, Göran Månsson, recorders, shawm and percussion, and Harald Pettersson, hurdy-gurdy, bowed lyre and shawm.
