The original band consisted of founder Peter Bjärgö (then Peter Pettersson) and vocalist Ida Bengtsson. Since 2002, Arcana has changed line-up and now consists of Peter Bjärgö, Stefan Eriksson, Ann-Mari Thim, Ia Bjärgö and Mattias Borgh.
Often largely instrumental, the band describes its music as inspired by medieval music or the middle age's more romantic aspects. Their album Le Serpent Rouge had a more oriental feeling to it, with instruments like hammered dulcimer, finger cymbals, duduk and other oriental/Arabic instruments.
Since 2006, Arcana is signed to Kalinkaland Records in Germany.
2008 saw the release of "Raspail"[1] on Kalinkaland Records.
Peter also has a martial industrial side-project called Sophia and has also recorded one collaborative album with Gustaf Hildebrand.
