Dear listeners, friends, fellow humans, happy new year. Thank you so much for following along with me on my journey in 2019. It was a bit crazy (and I went through some stuff I wasn’t too crazy about), but all in all it was pretty good. I have a bunch of great stuff planned in […]
I’ll be the first to admit I have a slightly morbid (and possibly unnatural) fascination with serial killers. Throughout the years I’ve read countless books and watched scores of documentaries about various twisted and evil murderers, sometimes freaking out friends and family. But what can I say? The evil that men do just fascinates me. […]
A while ago I posted a live show with my band, Góða fólkið (the Good Folks, or slightly more accurately, the SJWs). It’s a fun cover band that plays mostly Irish and American folk music, classic and contemporary, ranging from traditional folk songs to modern bluegrass and lots of stuff in between. It’s a lot […]
Wow. What a trip. So, if you’ve been following along you know I went to Nashville to play the Melodica festival in Nashville. And boy, oh boy, I had a great time. There was music, a lot of extremely unhealthy and delicious southern food, and I may or may not have had a couple of […]
So, as I told you a few weeks ago, I’m going to Nashville. In fact, I’m leaving today! I’m not going to be posting here a lot while I’m gone. I’ll probably put together a recap of the tour once I get back, but I’m not going to be doing a tour diary on here. […]
So if you’ve heard my music or have been around me at all, it probably won’t come as a huge surprise to learn that I really love Nick Cave. He’s one of my all time favourite songwriters, and he’s been a huge influence on me and my songwriting throughout the years. Recently my wonderful wife […]
So, here’s a little treat for you guys. I was recently asked to be a part of a new folk band. I said yes immediately, of course. We came up with a wonderful name (in Icelandic): Góða fólkið (It means the Good folk, but also kind of means The Social Justice Warriors). And we’ve been […]
Some exciting news, everybody! I’m going to Nashville, Tennessee, to play the first Melodica festival there. Those of you who know me have probably heard me talk about the Melodica festival before. If not, I have a post about it here. Basically, the Melodica festival is a volunteer based international singer-songwriter festival, where artists get […]
Nú vantar mig hjálp! Ég er bókaður að spila á Melodica festival í Nashville í Tennessee eftir mánuð. Sem er frábært, nema þetta er dýrt spaug. Og þess vegna er ég með smá söfnun til að hjálpa mér að standa straum af þessu og láta drauminn um að spila í tónlistarhöfuðborginni rætast. Melodica hátíðin er […]
Hey, guys. I just jumped on a live stream and played one of my favorite covers to do. It was a very short stream, but I plan on doing some longer ones in the future. This was mostly to test my equipment, and I’m very happy with the results, so I thought I’d share it […]
