The ballad has recently been performed and recorded by the following notable artists: In Extremo, Garmarna, Hedningarna (in Swedish), Haggard (in Italian), Heimataerde (in German) and Litvintroll (in Belarusian).
Triakel was founded in 1995 by Emma Härdelin (Garmarna), Kjell-Erik Eriksson (Hoven Droven) and Janne Strömstedt (former Hoven Droven member); Eriksson and Strömstedt had to perform together using only the fiddle and harmonium on New Year's Eve 1994 following a lost bet, and the performance was so successful that they decided to continue with the project.
