Reykjavík Grapevine - 02.06.2017, Page 33

workshops, exhibitions, talks,
and spontaneous happenings.
The whole town of Seyðisfjörður
comes alive with creativity dur-
ing LungA—you might find your-
self at an impromptu concert in
an abandoned house, watching a
piece of improv theatre in a school
hall, or rowing out into the fjord
as part of a mysterious art ritual.
And, of course, it all ends with a
blowout party featuring a choice
selection of Reykjavík’s finest.

When: 29 July
Where: Borgarfjörður Eystri, East
Iceland
Performing: Úlfur Úlfur, Todmobile,
Hinemoa, Lisa Hannigan, Murmur,
Síðan Skein Sól
Located deep in the Eastfjords,
Bræðslan must be one of the
most remote festivals on the
calendar. The town of Borgar-
fjörður Eystri is home to just 110
people—but every single one of
them, old and young, will be in
attendance as a diverse range
of pop acts take to the stage to
throw an almighty summer party
for the locals, and those hardy
souls who made the journey.

post-punk: all of Iceland’s DIY
and fringe scene is represented at
Norðanpaunk, an intimate alter-
native gathering held in the tiny
northern town of Laugarbakki.
Experimentation is appreciated,
strangeness is celebrated, and
being a freak is just expected.
Grab a beer and watch attend-
ees make the banners and band
members clean the venue whilst
passing the spatula for barbe-
cue duty. Don’t forget to BYOB.
