Everyone loves a showman, and Grísalappalísa’s frontman
Gunnar Ragnarsson is just that. Like a modern-day Bowie,
Gunnar smears his makeup, wears tight clothes and shakes his
hips with a fury that’s almost frightening. The band plays raw,
energetic and yet groovy punk, lyrically focusing on exploring the
young male condition—a topic that we can all agree has really
yet to be properly explored in art or society. All sarcasm aside,
Grísalappalísa’s tunes add something new to the conversation.
This isn’t some reiteration of 'Rushmore'—it’s something complete
in itself. HJC

Húrra
Naustin (D3) | 20:00 | Admission: TBA
We’ve got some contrasts coming up at Húrra soon. Headlining
the night will be the Brighton-based ultra-feminine chicks of
Dream Wife, a group that kind of says it all in the name. Self-
described as “poolside pop with a bite,” these ladies are cheeky
and fun, with a punchy sound and no shortage of princess power.
Also joining the stage will be the sax-filled vibes of Vök, a dreamy
electronic group from Iceland with a polished sound as chill as
their home country. On a completely different spectrum, Reykjavík
punk duo Panos from Komodo will be wrecking ears with extra-
crunchy music that sounds like a deliciously distorted day at the
beach. KES
