Sugar Plum Fairies - Fivrelddans - Haakon Lie I Ord Og Tonar

Haakon Lie I Ord Og Tonar

Sugar Plum Fairies' first album is entitled "Fivrelddans" and is a spin-off from a concert production entitled Fivrelddans & filosofi - Haakon Lie i ord og tonar composed and performed exclusively for the Olsokdagane i Fyresdal festival in 2004.

The record has received several good reviews and some airplay both in Norway and abroad, scoring three minor Norwegian radio hits with the songs Andre Dugurdskvildi, Fridtjof Nansen and Strålefall.

The album contains music put to the poems of Haakon Lie, himself originally from Fyresdal. Lie, in turn, was son of the renowned author and poet John Lie. Haakon Lie himself was a well-known writer in Norway and was a member of the Norwegian Authors' Union.

The title of the album means "Butterfly dance" in English.

Fivrelddans was released independently through the band's own label Spun Sugar Music on December 10, 2005.

Famous quotes containing the word lie:

    People often become scholars for the same reason they become soldiers: simply because they are unfit for any other station. Their right hand has to earn them a livelihood; one might say they lie down like bears in winter and seek sustenance from their paws.
    —G.C. (Georg Christoph)
