" Knep was a swiss duo based on scandinavian music and silly hairy stuff.
It was a guitar, an irish flute, a fiddle and a nyckelharpa.
It was a debate about octopi on stage and how to wear a hat.
It was a revolutionary way of surviving in cold conditions. "
Knep split up in january 2019.
Knupia still exists.
Pascal and Emelie both have projects going on (check them below).
And yes, we do still have CDs if you'd like to listen to our music (go here).

Knupia
Knupia is the story of two bands becoming a family. It is Sweden, the Netherlands and Switzerland united in a common balfolk and scandinavian repertoire. Knep and Nubia put all their musicians and dance teachers together on stage, for a visible tight-bond energy carrying the dancers' feet all night long.
