On October 5, the experimental U.S.
indie-rock group Danielson will per-
form at Fríkirkjan Church. The band was
founded in the late 1990s when the ec-
centric bandleader, Daniel Smith, got his
four siblings and their friends to play
some songs together for an art project.
They have made music together ever
since and released records under vari-
ous quirky band names.
The concerts are organized by the
Reykjavík International Film Festival in
connection with the screening of J.L.
Aronson’s documentary ‘Danielson: A
Family Movie’ which documents the
band’s strange history and addresses
issues such as their Christian faith and
family ties.
Danielson has worked closely with
bands and musicians such as Sufjan Ste-
vens, Deerhof, and Why? and their music
is sometimes described as something
Sufjan Stevens might sound like if he
went completely nuts. Seeing them play
this small, intimate venue should there-
fore be a memorable event.

The Danielson Family in Concert
Since its inception, Iceland Airwaves
has been the most photographically
documented non-geological phenome-
non in Iceland. Every night of every fes-
tival, hordes of agitated photographers
rush out, cameras in-tow, to try to snap
as many snappy snaps of the perform-
ing artists as their flashcards will fit. This
year, Iceland Airwaves and the Reykjavík
Grapevine will present a special exhibit
of the best photos of past Airwaves fes-
tivals at the Nordic House. Curated by
veteran Airwaves photographer Árni Tor-
fason, the exhibit (as well as a branch of
the fabled “Punk Vs. Diskó” installation”)
will be open throughout the duration of
the festival. The Nordic House will also
feature intimate performances by se-
lected Airwaves artists, as well as movie
screenings and an “Airwaves Brunch”
during IA2007, so it’s definitely a must-
visit.
