“Jábmieájmmuo is a powerful collaboration between Sámi artist Sara Ajnnak and The Ciderhouse Rebellion (Adam Summerhayes – violin & Murray Grainger – accordion), journeying into Jábmie Aimo – the Sámi realm of the dead. Blending voice, violin and accordion, the trio channel something raw, spiritual and elemental, dissolving boundaries between improvisation and invocation to reveal music that feels ancient, urgent and alive.”
“Landscape of the Spirits is an evolving four-part musical journey that invites listeners into a deeply human dialogue between land, spirit, ancestry, and sound. With each chapter, Sámi artist Sara Ajnnak and the originators of folk impro – UK duo The Ciderhouse Rebellion travel further into the shared terrain of intuition, improvisation, and myth.”
Across this ongoing series, each part has unfolded a theme:
Part One: Geärkakame – Cradle (Feb 14th, 2025) – The beginning of life, music, and relationship to land.
Part Two: Gárránis – Raven (June 21st, 2025) – The shadow, the messenger, the link between the seen and unseen.
Part Three: Hálluo – Desire (August 29th, 2025) Longing, loss, and the fragile space between despair and hope.
Part Four: Jábmieájmmuo – Shadows Between Worlds (October 31st, 2025) A visceral reckoning with mortality, spirit, and respect. And now the trio unveils the final part – one single track: Jábmieájmmuo – Shadows Between Worlds
“Through her voice, Sara channels both the restlessness of the spirits and the underlying, ever-present dread of a world in turmoil. Murray Grainger’s accompaniment rumbles like a deep, aching pulse of unease, while Adam Summerhayes’ tones reflect an indescribable pain – a soundscape that both captivates and reveals.”
The trio will release all four parts as one physical CD in Spring 2025, under Sara Ajnnak’s label.
