Leagus

Musical magic from the north

Leagus is a modern and experimental musical duo from Sápmi. Their music alternates between formal composed parts, open structures and free improvisation - from muted, minimalist, hymn-like pieces to more rock-oriented improvised parts.

The duo was formed in 2013, and they took the name from an expression from Herborg's home region of Kåfjord in North Troms, where "leagus" is Sami slang for asking about something. Over the years, the duo has worked to find varied and atypical interactions between piano and guitar, which has developed into a progressive and unique form of musical unity and a shared exploratory and complex sonic universe.
