Admission: 2,500 ISK
These concerts, taking place at the Sigurjón Ólafsson Museum
on Tuesday evenings during the summer, have become a tradi-
tion in the cultural life of Reykjavík. This month, you can enjoy
Ingibjörg Azima Guðlaugsdóttir's music set for the poems of her
grandmother, Jakobína Sigurðardóttir; new interpretations of
ancient Icelandic folklore; or a concert celebrating beloved com-
poser Jónas Tómasson with a selection of solo works from dif-
ferent periods of his career. The main hall of the museum seats
90 people and its warm acoustics are ideal for solos, duos and
smaller chamber groups. GR

A Block Party
Like No Other
KEXPort 2016
July 14, 12:00-midnight at KEX Hostel, Skúlugata 28 (E7). Admission: Free!
Reykjavík’s trendiest hostel is throwing a block party for the
ages by bringing some of the city’s most exciting musicians
down to the waterfront. The lineup reads like a who’s-who of
the people your cool friends talk about while you nod and pre-
tend to understand. If you wanted to catch up-and-comers
like Hórmónar, Auður and Alvia Islandia at Secret Solstice but
weren’t able to afford the tickets, or if you missed out on Mugi-
son’s recent concert series at Kassinn, this is the place for you!
From punk, to RnB, to rap, to roots, KEXPort is covering all the
bases. The other musical acts who will be making an appear-
ance at the block party are DJ Flugvél og geimskip, $igmund,
Tómas Jónsson, Tilbury, Singapore Sling, Misþyrming and
Grísalappalísa. This is a summer event not to be missed—and
the best part is that it’s completely free! IW
