concerts & nightlife in April
Benni Hemm Hemm Returns With New
Band En Tow!
BRAND NEW SONGS, TOO!
April 14, 22:00
KEX Hostel
1.000 ISK

Benni Hemm Hemm has long since proven himself an excellent composer and
musician, whose career is well worth following closely. This Saturday he will take
the stage at KEX Hostel with a brand new band to play some brand new songs, and
it promises to be unlike anything we’ve seen from the man before. The new band
reportedly sports eight keyboard players who also sing and two percussionists in
lieu of a drummer. Between numbers, visual artists Halldór Arnar Úlfarsson, Huginn
Þór Arason, Jesper Pedersen and Páll Ivan Pálsson will create music through the
band, by taking its sounds and processing them through home-made electronic
equipment. Go forth and witness random craziness and psychedelic darkness from
Benni Hemm Hemm, a first if there ever was one.

Need A Hug?
Go hang out in Reykjavík on April 18
Hallgrímskirkja 14.00
Free
If so, you will be thrilled to hear that
some people from ESN have organised
an event that will guarantee you as
many free hugs as you’d like! The or-
ganisers thought it was a pity that face-
to-face human contact has become a
rarity, as everyone is eager to protect
their personal space. And because ev-
erybody needs a hug from time to time,
they thought they would start to just
spread the love and hug anyone who’s
willing. The goal is to make as many
people as possible smile and thus make
the streets of Reykjavík a happier place.
The shindig starts at Hallgrímskirkja at
14:00 on April 18, so be ready to dole
out some happiness! Look up the Free
Hugs Campaign Reykjavík on Facebook
for more information.
