When one thinks of Iceland, icebergs, hot springs and indie music usually stand out. However sad being so rapidly circumspected might sound to any Icelander reading this, it is still way preferable than being known as those rather mature-looking hockey villains from the ever-so kitsch and abyssal depths of Emilio Estevez’s post-Robert Hugues career, but then again, who would remember that!
The brightest star shining upon the septentrional capital music scene these past few years is arguibly Reykjavik’s own Seabear. They are to Iceland what Beck is to America, adding a subtle yet enticing lo-fi filter to their moody folk music! Even though, they’ve been out there for quite some time, their second LP, We Built a Fire, hitting the shelves this week and their upcoming performance at Toronto’s Horseshoe Tavern on March 31st prompted us to introduce Sigfusson & Co to you officially.
Ergo, here’s I Sing, I Swim off their debut album, The Ghost That Carried Us Away, enjoy!
