Mar 8 – Apr 5
The annual Aldrei fór ég suður rock fes-
tival will be celebrated during the Eas-
ter weekend, March 21 and 22, in the
remote town of Ísafjörður in the West
Fjords. Since the inaugural festival
in 2004, Aldrei fór ég suður has been
permanently established as the pre-
Airwaves music event of the year. Like
many good ideas, Aldrei fór ég suður
was born out of conversation over
beer. Mugison, one of Iceland’s most
celebrated musicians and Ísafjörður’s
own, and his dad, affectionately known
as Papamug, had this crazy idea one
night that it would be cool to invite
top musicians to Ísafjörður to play sec-
ond fiddle to the local talent, which
would be the real star-attraction. The
idea quickly moved from the concept
phase to production phase. Every mu-
sician Mugison approached with the
idea was generally excited and willing
to be a part of it. At the time of print-
ing, the confirmed line-up includes:
Bob Justman, Hjaltalín, Retro Stefson,
Sprengjuhöllin, XXX Rottweilerhundar,
Sign, SSSól, Mysterious Marta, Morðing-
jarnir and Múgsefjun, with more to be
announced soon. Check www.aldrei.is
for further details.
Ísafjörður, March 21-22.
