This is the sound of Iceland: rough and intimate, mysterious and hauntingly exciting. Songs about animals and criminals, love and tragic fate: material from the very depths of folk tradition. The archaic and powerful sound of the music seems to be directly inspired by the eruptive Icelandic landscape. The Songs of Iceland are driven by the tension between a life with nature and the desire for shelter, warmth, and for a feeling of security. Singer Rosa Baldursdottirs unique voice always tells stories immediately understood even without a word of Icelandic.
