About: Cait Vitale-Sullivan is from the high desert of Idaho. She is intrigued by the human connection to nature, art, and music, and when not playing outside, she can be found playing fiddle or singing in the forest. In 2013 she moved to Norway where she was introduced to Scandinavian traditional music and majestic fjords. Upon completion of her bachelors in Ecology, she moved to Sweden to complete a Fulbright grant studying the connection between Kulning (Swedish cow calling music) and landscape. She enjoys rock climbing, swimming in cold water, skiing, and baking treats.
