Meet Jónsi, the guitarist and vocalist for the Icelandic post-rock band Sigur Rós. Known for being blind in one eye, using a cello bow on a guitar, being part of an art collaboration and now also known as a solo artist. With Sigur Rós taking an “indefinite hiatus” from music this year he is working on his solo effort said to contain predominantly acoustic music and string arrangements from classical composer Nico Muhly. This particular track is off the upcoming album and is an interesting mix of banging drums and random percussion instruments all beautifully cradled by a subtle flute. If you are like me and cant wait till may to get his album then you will be happy to know that he will be releasing an EP in roughly a month, but till then enjoy this…
