In media:

Wiik & Co invites us into a wonderful and fresh soundscape where bluegrass meets jazz and a whole lot of other influences – Tor Hammerø, Nettavisen

My absolute highlight is «All God Rytme Er Algoritme», nerdy, sure, but so beautiful! After a long, calm build-up we're thrown into a rhythmical high-speed chase with stumbling blocks that the trio masterfully maneuvers through – Torkjell Hovland, Folkemusikk
