Biography

The founders of Helvetic Folk Metal - EXCELSIS - Melodic tunes meet crushing metal riffs accompanied by such traditional Swiss instruments as bag pipes, tin wistles, "Bäsechlopfe" (hitting a broom stick) or "Talerschwinge" (circling coins in a ceramic bowl). Lyrically, the band interpret stories by famous Swiss author Jeremias Gotthelf whose sagas, fairytales, allegories and descriptions of live back in the day form the basis of the exciting musical journey the listener is invited to take. Come and join us on our trip back to when dragons and other fascinating creatures still roamed the lands. Helvetic Folk Metal since 1996
