2004年起，流浪之歌音樂節與Riddu Riddu Festival（中譯：挪威海岸風暴音樂節）成為姐妹音樂節。此音樂節源自海岸薩米族（Sámi）對政府長期以來壓制、同化薩米族的反動與省思。

​

1999年，薩米年輕人決意反抗長期打壓，創辦了今年將邁入第26屆的Riddu Riddu Festival。現在，Riddu不僅受到挪威政府、薩米國會與當地政府的支持，也成為世界各地原住民共襄盛舉的年度盛會。

​

今年受邀演出的北地女聲（Golbma Jiena，薩米語：三人合聲）是2016年Riddu的特別計劃，成員包括三位年輕的年輕女性傳統歌者。她們皆曾獲選為Riddu的優秀青年藝術家，此全新組合致力透過傳統歌謠與全新創作發揚薩米傳統吟唱法「Joik」。此吟唱傳統傳承已久，是原住民族保存集體記憶的載體。現代的薩米族青年透過學習「Joik」維繫薩米身份，而此三人計劃也要嘗試將當代元素與傳統歌謠混合「再創作」，重新詮釋屬於她們的薩米認同。

​

Golbma Jiena is a trio of young and up-and-coming singers: Marja Mortensson, Elina Waage Mikalsen and Katarina Burruk. They hail from Norway and Sweden, but are united by their Sami indiengous heritage. The three singers intertwine pop melodies ands Yoiks, the traditional Sami song form, with loops and experimental approaches to singing.

 

This project was born out of MMF’s “sister festival” in Norway, the Riddu Riddu Festival, a major event for indigenous music from all over the globe. Golbma Jiena (literally three person harmonies)  was commissioned in 2016 by Riddu Riddu with the idea of bringing three young women singers together to offer a fresh approach on traditional Sami music.
