Once A Fig invites the listener on a musical journey as they intertwine Swedish and English
folk traditions with original music & improvisation.
Spinning, trance-like melodies morph into electrifying groove-based tunes as tales from the
forest meet daydreams in the big city.
The trio has opened up a new world with their unique sound and strong chemistry, passing on
something truly special to their audience.

''Once A Fig is unbearably cool. Three virtuosos of emotion and melody tap into all kind of
feelings including freedom, wilderness, ecstasy and witchery with collusion so perfect
that they must secretly be sisters.''
- Corrie Dick, 2024
''The three of them seemed to read one another's minds, as they spun trance-like melodies and
wove ever changing textures ranging from the most restrained grooves all the way to such rich
washes of sound that I was left marvelling at the fact that there were somehow just three of
them.''
- Tom Step, UK Jazz News
