Eihwar announce "Pagan Folk Nights" 2026 European Tour • GRIMM Gent

The feral warriors of EIHWAR return to the stage, joined by Mira Ceti (of Heilung) as special guest, for the “Pagan Folk Nights” European Tour, running from March 26 to April 18, 2026.

Known for their shamanic drums, ritual chants, and techno-charged battle trances, Eihwar have ignited stages across the continent since joining Season of Mist in 2023. With millions of YouTube views and explosive festival appearances at Hellfest, Wacken Open Air, and Midgardsblot, the clan has quickly risen from underground myth to international phenomenon: even sharing the stage with The HU as opening act on their French and German tour dates.

Led by Asrunn (vocals, traditional percussion) and Mark (vocals, machines), Eihwar forge their own sonic weapon: Viking War Trance, a furious hybrid of Nordic folk, industrial pulse, and ecstatic dance ritual. Their performances blur the line between concert and ceremony, transforming audiences into clans united by rhythm, movement, and myth.

Opening each night will be Mira Ceti, whose ethereal presence has captivated audiences worldwide as a vocalist and performer with Heilung since 2019. Her new duo project, recently signed by Doomstar (Myrkur, Eivør, Mayhem …), delves into the mystical and the unseen, channeling ancient spirits through ritual song and trance-like harmonies. Her set opens the gates to a realm where music bridges nature, spirit, and the forgotten pulse of pre-modern societies.

Fresh from the release of their latest single “Hugrheim” (out now via Season of Mist on all streaming platforms), Eihwar continue to expand their mythic universe. The track unveils the tenth world of Yggdrasil; Hugrheim, the realm of the spirit, where fragments of memory and reincarnated souls awaken through pounding drums and spectral melodies. Accompanied by a cinematic video directed by Samuel Maurin, the song embodies the clan’s core essence: wild, ritualistic, and irresistibly danceable.

Eihwar have recently opened their new webshop, featuring four t-shirt designs (including one new design previously exclusive to their live shows) and the “Eihwar bindrune” medallion, which the duo describe as the “jewelry of the clan”, a symbolic extension of their ritual universe.

Many bands have explored the Pagan & Norse worlds over the last 15 years seeking atmospheric, acoustic and ritual sounds with great seriousness. This is not the path EIHWAR chose.

Although the musicians of Eihwar are virtuosos in their acoustic traditional instruments, their goal is to bring some fun… and as much chaos as possible during their concerts, provoking the craziest trance on dancefloors. They bring a festive and furious neo-viking music whose primal force is based on technoid machines, mixed with trance vocals, shamanic drums and traditional Nordic sounds. Electronics are a ‘new steel’ for those modern warriors, cold and powerful. As the web already says, the duo is a kind of new ‘Viking Carpenter Brut’.
