Elin Palmer writes, performs and records music with and for various artists (and sometimes for herself). She plays mostly Violin and Nyckelharpa but has been called a “multi instrumentalist”. She was born in Värmland Sweden and her music roots stem mostly back to the folk music of Sweden! She has worked with many outstanding artists including 16 Horsepower, the Czars, Wovenhand and the Fray. She was a core member and string arranger for Munly in their former group Munly and the Lee Lewis Harlots. She is currently playing with Eric Bachmann of Crooked Fingers, Archers of Loaf, as well as performing compositions by Tom Hagerman, and creating music for commercials with videographer and cyclist Kelly Magelky of Filament Productions. Elin will be touring and playing for Devotchka this May! She is always looking for cool new projects to work on:)
