Arny Margret presents new single, "Day Old Thoughts"

"Day Old Thoughts" was recorded in Reykjavík at Kiddi’s studio – her home away from home. It features guest and labelmate Ásgeir on some of the instrumentation. "This was recorded here in Iceland last fall. The first thing we tried to do was get together the band and do this one slightly differently. It says a lot of things, it’s honest," she explains.

"The main thing I wanted for this album was for it to be different," Arny Margret explains of the album. "When I listen to the last one, I feel like it's mainly about me and the guitar. It's very stripped back. I wanted to do more - I love the banjo, the fuller sound, I love the American sound, so recording it all over there made a big difference. I’ve always worked with the same people in the same places, so I never thought I could do this - work with all these people who record with some of my favourite musicians. I really admire everyone on this. And pushing myself out of my comfort zone, that’s quite rewarding."
