Biography
Born in Ohcejohka, the northernmost municipality in Finland, Hildá Länsman is the daughter of Ulla Pirttijärvi, a yoiker and singer, and Jari Länsman, a reindeer herder. She took to traditional culture at an early age, creating a yoik for the moon when she was just three. She later perfected her interest in music, studying for over two years at Helsinki's Sibelius Academy.
When she was eight, Länsman made her first recording, singing a yoik on the Máttaráhku askái album released by her mother in 2002. In 2011, together with Niillas Holmberg, she performed on Inger-Mari Aikio-Arianaick's IMA hutkosat CD. She and Holmberg went on to sing children's songs on a number of videos. She also yoiked on the Gudnejahtatgo track with Ailu Valle on his Dušši dušše duššat album in 2012. In 2014, together with her mother, she formed the duo Solju, which means brooch.
In 2014, they formed the duo Solju, placed third with "Hold Your Colours" in the pre-Eurovision Finnish contest UMK in 2015. In January 2019, Solju received the Folk Music Creator prize at the Finnish Ethnogala. Solju also won the prize for the Best International Indigenous Release at the Canadian Indigenous Music Awards (2019). The duo's début album Ođđa Áigodat (New Times) was released in April 2018.
Released in April 2018, the album Ođđa Áigodat (New Times) features Länsman and her mother. The tracks, all in the Northern Sami language, are inspired by both traditional yoiking and contemporary pop. They include "Heargevuoddji" (Reindeer Driver), "Irgeávnnas" (Boyfriend-to-Be) and the beautifully sad title number "Ođđa Áigodat" (New Times).
Released in April 2019 the album Vildaluodda - Wildprint. VILDÁ (Hildá Länsman & Viivi Maria Saarenkylä) is a blend of indigenous Sámi yoiks, grooving accordion rhythms and improvisation. VILDÁ's debut album Vildaluodda - Wildprint (2019 Bafe's Factory) is a journey to Sámi lands - the vast landscapes, arctic hills and frosty winds.
