Fredy Samuel Lundh, aka Fredy Clue, is a folk musician with a big creative drive for developing the Swedish folk tradition. They produce modern Nordic music on nyckelharpa (Sweden’s “national instrument,” the keyed fiddle) and song. Fredy’s performance merges folk music, tradition, and queer questions in a way that envelopes audiences completely, creating remarkable, transformative experiences imbued with happiness. They perform solo and in duo with Julia Bengtson on fiddle and vocals, among other collaborators. On stage they craft immersive experiences combining music, tradition, storytelling and folk art.

Fredy is also the project manager behind Sweden’s first gender neutral traditional folk costume–a project that gained international attention putting Clue on the map as one of Sweden’s most innovative folk artists in any genre. The folk costume Bäckadräkten is now
on display in two permanent exhibitions in Sweden – Röhsska Museum of Design and Craft and Kulturen Historic Museum.
