Eydís Evensen
Sunday May 21 20:00
Harpa Kaldalón
5.990 ISK
Ever since the release of her debut
album Bylur in 2021, Blönduós-born
pianist and composer Eydís Even-
sen has been hailed as one of the
bright new voices in contemporary
classical music. Formerly a mod-
el but submerged in music since
a young age, seeking out a piano
wherever she could, Eydís has fast
become internationally celebrated
for her works. Now about to release
her second album, The Light, on
May 26 and embarking on her first
North American tour, Eydís will de-
light her local fans with a send-off
concert. RX

R6013
Free, donations welcome
We’ve got a hump day treat for you,
with a fun mid-week show of elec-
tronic experimental kids bopping
through downtown’s premiere inde-
pendent basement venue, R6013.
Newcomers Kötturinn sem gufaði
upp will bring some fresh funky elec-
tropop. Tildra serves up a layer cake
of weird grooves, wonky melodies
and eclectic acoustics. Sara Flindt
will perform the sparkling and glitchy
pop bangers from her new EP It’s Al-
ways Nice To Be Wanted. It’s always
nice to see a midweek show, so go
make them feel wanted. RX
Hedwig & the Angry Inch
May 24–25 & June 1–2 20:00
Gaukurinn
4.990 ISK
Legendary queer rock musical Hed-
wig & the Angry Inch has been a cult
sensation since it first hit off-Broad-
way in 1998 and the performance
of Stephen Trask and John Camer-
on Mitchell’s iconic show remains
an act of rebellion and liberation.
Starring Hafsteinn Níelsson as
Hedwig, Halldóra Björg Guðmunds-
dóttir as Yitzhak and the Angry Inch
performed by the psychedelic rock
band Nornagal, it will be the first
musical ever shown at Gaukurinn.
For all the children of the earth,
moon and sun. RX
