Ásgeir

Sun, 29. Oct 2017, 8 PM | ICELAND CALLING

Event Halle Messe Basel

The Icelandic music scene is gaining cult status, so it's high time to showcase this country in the Far North with two of its best acts: rising young band Kaleo takes the passion of blues and rock and interprets it in a typically Nordic way. The quartet made its international breakthrough with its second album «A/B», produced last year. Reykjavik-born Ásgeir also has two albums under his belt, and the 25-year-old singer’s new album «Afterglow» is a mesmerising mix of other-worldly folk-pop and expressive vocals coloured with idiosyncratic, quirky timbres. Typically Icelandic!
