One Week Wonder

A trio from Iceland formed in 2014. The trio went to Berlin to study sound engineering and during their stay they started to record songs with references to bands like Pink Floyd, Air and also movie composer Ennio Morricone. This wild mix of influences translated into as somehow familiar, but a unique personal style of the group. The voice of Magnús Benedikt Sigurðsson captivates the listener with it's warm and heartfelt tone and goes well with group’s vintage sound reminding of old movies. Árni Guðjónsson on keys and Helgi Kristjánsson on drums, both deliver sharp, mesmerizing performance. They are also admirers of the real analog and did their recordings on tape. But the 24 track tape machine is not what makes their music special. Sometimes it’s melancholic, sometimes political, but the main thread that goes through all songs is a journey. The trio recently released a video for their first single 'Mars'. An EP will be debuted in August 2016.
