Reykjavík Grapevine - 05.02.2016, Side 15

This issue’s picker is Karó, a young and promising singer taking her
first steps in the music scene. Karó won a national singing competition
on behalf of her upper secondary school early in 2015, attracting a lot of
good attention in the process. Since then, she has been in collaboration
with artists such as Logi Pedro and Auður. Karó is a regular at the
downtown electronic and hip-hop happenings, but admits she’s a bit of
a slacker when it comes to art exhibitions.
You can find the events our picker of the issue found to be interesting
spread out over the music and art pages, marked with this icon.

This Faroese goddess blesses us with contemporary folk
music from her newest album ‘Slør’. The album is infused
with dreamlike sounds and hypnotic compositions, exploring
the search for freedom and desire to find a place in life.
Accompanying Eivør are musicians Mikael Blak and Høgni
Isberg, who have worked with her for many years. Get lost in
the magic of Eivør’s performance and her futuristic yet nostalgic
sound. HBG Photo by Sigga Ella

February
Muck and Pink Street Boys are two of the bands leading the
new wave of rock and punk that’s pulling the Reykjavík scene up
to new heights. Loud, dirty, provocative and uncompromising,
both bands released seminal albums last year and are now
playing together for the first time in years. Expect to leave the
show with beer-soaked clothes and bleeding ears, and black and
blue from the best mosh pit of the year. GB
