HEILUNG are known around the world for transcending the boundaries of music. They don't play shows but perform a ritual, fusing together earth, fire and incense with throat singing, primordial rhythms, subtle electronic textures, a mesmerizing light show and instruments made from human bone.
Today, Christopher Juul, Maria Franz, Kai Uwe Faust and their Nordic collective are sharing Heilung's most sacred ritual yet. Lifa Iotungardwas recorded at Red Rocks Amphitheater in October 2021 during Heilung's first sold-out performance at the renowned venue. This special performance is now available today for the very first time on CD and vinyl through Season of Mist.

Remember that we all are brothers. All people, beasts, trees, and stones, and wind. We all descend from the one great being.
Already this year, Heilung have performed their ritual at Glastonbury, Download and Roskilde Festival, as well as in front of another sold-out crowd at Red Rocks.
This fall, the Nordic collective will embark on a tour of Europe before closing out 2024 in Australia and New Zealand with their label mate Eivør. More dates at European arenas will follow in 2025.
