Oneironautas!
Congratulations!!
AWILAS, Anki Wallgren & Larisa Ljunkrona!
This is how crazy happy and surprised Awilas is after winning the prize
for Newcomer of the year at Folk- och Världsmusikgalan in Helsingborg!
We have worked so hard and wondered where our music belong, and to just
be recognized like this means the world to us. Also we got as a special
prize one weeks residence at Eric Sahlström institutet in Tobo, thank
you so much!
There is so many people
we want to thank, but we'll start with sending all our love to the
people who made our debut album possible: Joel for recording and
producing, Hallimash for your stunning artwork, Lina Loca for the
beautiful album layout and Linus Andersson for mastering.
And of
course the wonderful artists that performed with us on our release
concert: Li Molnar Kronlid for your dance, Zofka Kasparova for your
flute playing and improvisations and Camilla Strandberg for your voice
from another world. Love Lidén for your video art and Therese Larsson
for doing our sound. Anna Heikkinen and Héctor Garcia Jorquera for the
poetry. Anders Roos and Max Lindsten for photographing and filming. And
the backbones of the release: Alice Ljungkrona, Karl-Fredrik Hagman and
Minna Mönttinen for making the scenery and fixing everything for the
whole evening! And just all the love in the world to all of you who
support our music and voted to nominate us for this gala!
