Hildegard von Blingin'

Bardcore for the discerning clergyman, noble, or muck-gathering peasant.

I'm a Canadian singer/illustrator who started making Bardcore in 2020. Bardcore is a pastiche genre that takes modern songs and makes them "old-timey" with Medieval and Renaissance inspired instrumentation. This is fantasy music and not historical recreation, as evidenced by my use of Early Modern English rather than Old English.

The majority of the instrumentals were created by me, and feature a mix of virtual and real instruments, including the Celtic harp, Irish whistle, and recorder. Several videos feature my brother, known here as Friar Funk.

Looking to use my music in a non-profit video, play, podcast, video game mod, etc? Please go ahead and provide proper credit to any of the artists included on the track. Feel free to send me an email to let me know where it's been used!

Lastly, I don’t take private commissions, but I am open to collaborating on projects that fit my niche.
