Folkmusikens Queen B mini rehursal show + exclusive singalong-experience!

Bring your own lunch, enjoy the show, and join in the allsång!

Swedish folksinger Brita Björs is inventing her own folklore diva by interpreting Beyoncé from a folkloric point of view: traditional Swedish folksongs in electropop arrangements based on the themes from Bey’s album Lemonade, creating diva-like stage clothes inspired from national costumes, exploring how to do sexy performative folk dance, all enhanced by engrossing video projections, stage light and scenography.

Here comes a unique opportunity where you can contribute to the FMQB-universe! Brita will perform a selection from the show and then it’s time for “allsång” (singalong), and not just ordinary allsång, but a recording session of the allsång!!!

Brita is right now recording the music from FMQB and needs more voices for the lullaby-allsång (which appears in the show). You don’t have to be a great singer, you just need to be a glad singer, Brita is not looking for a perfect choir but a happy crowd.

Please come and singalong with Folkmusikens Queen B!
