Fredy Clue

Fredy Samuel Lundh (born 1995), known professionally as Fredy Clue, is a Swedish folk musician and artist from Gothenburg. Educated at the Academy of Music and Drama at the University of Gothenburg, Clue later began performing on stage. Playing the nyckelharpa as a solo act, Clue uses sound sampling and looping effects to produce layered soundscapes. Their lyrics and spoken word are often inspired by their non-binary gender identity. Their debut EP, Vill du leka?, was released in 2023, followed by Bloomtide in 2026. Clue also plays in the folk trio Fælt, the techno folk duo Dyur X Fredy Clue, and in two folk quartets: Furuhill and Woodlands+Bäckafall. Clue volunteers for nonprofit organizations that support the folk arts in Sweden and in 2025 was recognized by the Planeta Festival in Gothenburg with the Inspirator of the Year award.

Clue is responsible for producing Bäckadräkten, which is considered Sweden's first unisex folk costume. Their purpose was to invite wider participation in Swedish folk traditions by making available an outfit that is not restricted to a specific gender. They collaborated with the Textile Museum of Borås and professionals with backgrounds in clothing design and production. The costume combines components of older Swedish folk costumes and merges design elements traditionally considered male and female. It has attracted praise, negative reactions, and international press attention. In 2025, the Röhsska Museum in Gothenburg added a copy of the costume to their permanent exhibit. By mid 2026, up to 300 people had produced or were producing their own.
