A magical, dreamy night under the Nordic sky, only the simple tunes from the instruments of the two friends breaking the perfect silence. Tunes dancing in the air with the mystical northern lights. “Tonight is the night for a song” - Snufkin  "The Moomins are a staple in an Icelandic child's bookcase. Written and illustrated by Tove Jansson, one of Finland's greatest writers and artists, the Moomins have been somewhat of a guiding light throughout my adulthood. I had Moomin mugs in my college dorm and when I need to calm down while on tour, I periodically watch some of the videos clips available online. The Moomin world and creatures are witty, cute, and unserious while maintaining status as true art -- the types of qualities that many Nordic people and exports tend to possess." - Laufey 12.5oz enamel mug
