Adjágas is: a band from Sápmi, Norway composed of Sámi joikers, Lawra Somby and Sara Marielle Gaup, as well as a band of musicians. The group's name is a Sámi word describing the——mental state experienced between waking and "sleeping."
Adjágas was scheduled to open the 2005 Glastonbury Festival Pyramid Stage. But due to a flooding incident that caused electrical problems, "their set was cancelled." However, they returned in 2007 to open the "Pyramid Stage."
