Icelandic singer-songwriter Asgeir performs at The Bradshaw Hall

This Is Tmrw presents Ásgeir

As one of Iceland’s most successful exports, singer songwriter Ásgeir has spent the time between his record-breaking debut (now celebrating its 10th anniversary) and today pushing the boundaries of his textured, thoughtful brand of folk-pop.

Last year he released his long anticipated fourth album ‘Time On My Hands’ via One Little Independent Records.

‘Time On My Hands’ sees Ásgeir in a state of self-reflection and experimentation, having spent much of the last few years in his home and in the studio deeply engrossed in writing, recording, translating and producing.

On this album he’s entered new realms of composition, sensitively layering acoustics with electronics and brass. As with some of his previous work, most notably 2017’s ‘Afterglow’ and 2020’s ‘Bury The Moon’, Ásgeir plays with euphoric and choral elements of electronic pop music while keeping a tight grasp on the introspective, vocal-lead style of the acoustica that made him famous.

‘Time On My Hands’ was recorded in Studio Hljóðrit where Ásgeir has always recorded, working closely with producer Guðmundur Kristinn Jónsson, as well as recording some of it at his home.

For fans of John Grant, Bon Iver, Jose Gonzalez and James Blake.
