Røyst
Røyst is an all female cappella group, consisting of four Norwegian/English musicians. It was established in Leeds in 2002.
The music is mainly rooted in jazz/experimental jazz and styles of ethnic music of various origins. Røyst's entire repertoire is original compositions by the members of the group, with the sole exception of the use of old folk melodies and rhymes incorporated into their own contemporary compositions. Røyst has a very strong focus on improvisation and using vocal techniques that might be unfamiliar to many ears.
