KATARINA BARRUK

KATARINA BARRUK

Katarina Barruk is known as one of Sábmie’s most talented live artists. Barruk's unique, distinctive voice, in combination with a steadfast presence on stage creates a space of vulnerability and strength that is unlike anything else.

She delivers a fierce, yet deeply down-to-earth, mix of pop music, traditional joik and improvisational elements.

Katarina sings in her mother tongue, Ume Sámi language. The language is on UNESCO's red list of critically endangered languages, but many Umesámis are taking the language back.

Doing music in Ume Sámi is a way of inviting my friends and the audience into my universe, where Ume Sámi is the norm, highly topical, and alive.
