CONCERTS & NIGHTLIFE
KEX Hostel
Skúlagata 28 (E7) | 14:00 | ISK Free!
After you listen to (and love) our Track of Issue, be sure to check
out the man behind it, Hörður Bjarnason. The band is a one-man
project in which Hörður creates lush, captivating post-dubstep
beats, which he perfectly complements with his silky-smooth
tenor. The quaint, intimate atmosphere in KEX Hostel, complete
with a special Cosy Sunday menu, makes for a terrific setting in
which you can be carried away by M-Band’s dreamy synth-driven
sounds. This is a can’t-miss instalment of KEX Hostel’s weekly
Cosy Sunday series. TC

Húrra
Tryggvagata 22 (D3) | 21:00 | ISK 1,000
Modern day emulators of ‘80s new wave pop and Tears For
Fears soundalikes Kiriyama Family are playing a synthillating
gig at Húrra. Helped out by the talented purveyor of dance-funk
sampling DJ Katla, the electronica five-piece will be pumping out
white-hot mixes of the cheesiest elements of synth-pop with funky
dancealong beats as can be heard in their tracks “Portobello” and
“Sneaky Boots.” Other songs, such as “Weekends,” have been
successful in filling in for the relative absence of good fashioned
new wave electronica pop in the Icelandic music scene, making
this show a must-see. LH
