About this event
As one of Iceland’s most successful exports, singer-songwriter Ásgeir has built an internationally acclaimed folk-pop career. His debut Dýrð í dauðaþögn became the best-selling debut in Icelandic history, followed by In The Silence (2014), Afterglow (2017), Bury The Moon (2020) and Time On My Hands (2022), earning praise from outlets such as MOJO, NME, BBC 6 Music and The Independent. In recent years, Ásgeir has focused on intimate solo shows across Europe, the Nordics and Iceland, performed with the Icelandic Symphony Orchestra, recorded a live Arte TV session in Berlin, and written music for theatre. He is currently preparing his next album, written with a renewed focus on melody and personal storytelling, exploring themes of relationships, aging, hope and nostalgia. Produced hands-on, with Ásgeir playing most instruments and collaborating with a small circle of musicians, the album captures a warm, organic energy and marks a new chapter in his evolving body of work.
