Entheos ~ divinely guided to create * Enclave ~ tight knit group with a common mission *

Entheos Enclave is a Duluth based original band fronted by Inga Weis. This Nordic fusion of indie/crossover prog and world music comes from both deep love and deep grief, while embracing the joy of artistry. After releasing a full length album from Inga’s previous discography this last year, they have now recorded another full album as a group this past August 2025 to be released November 21st. The lyrics and melodies draw up inspiration from below the surface: emotion, spirituality, and the school of life. Complete with classically-influenced guitar, jazz-influenced piano, bass, drums, mandolin, backup vox, and Inga’s unique style, a language of its own is created. We can show up in many different incarnations: duo, trio, full band, or any other combinations from the group.  Our music will have you moving, feeling, and connecting to a meticulous ear and an open heart through complex melodies and cathartic messaging.

MEET THE BAND

INGA WEIS (vocals)

Inga has been singing professionally since childhood with her parents who were traveling musicians. She gigs all around the midwest with several bands: One original funk band, Soul Sherpa, a funk cover band called Lake City Smokin Section, and with her mother in a duo called Lioness. She has been song-writing throughout all of these years and here she brings her original music to the stage with a full band. She studied contemporary dance at Luther College, sang with the vocal jazz group for four years, and was a finalist in the Big Top Idol singing competition.
