There's also a norwegian jazz/folk-balkan band called "Farmers Market". Their concerts are amazing, extremely talented musicians all of them - especially the multi-instrumentalist frontman Stian Carstensen who plays a range of instruments and is, beyond a doubt, the most virtuosic sucker I've ever heard with an accordian - both live and on recordings.

Their last album from 2008 is called "Surfin' USSR" and is supposedly very good. It won the equivalent of a norwegian grammy here.

I can't up it for you, but I know it's out there .. so if you send me a PM, I can help.
