IRIJ is a one-woman-folk project brought to life by ELUVEITIE violinist Meri Tadic in autumn 2006.
Her compositions range from mere instrumentals all the way to a cappella songs.
It's a journey through a Slavic soul devoted to tradition and sincerity.
IRIJ is mentioned in Slavic mythology with almost oppositional meanings.
Its the celestial residence of pagan gods as well as the here and now and the materialistic world.
Her music sounds bewitching and bright, but dark and plain at the same time.
It catches up with what is in between, a world between the worlds.
