Ásgeir is back with "Unbound" and details of second record Afterglow
Icelandic singer/songwriter Ásgeir shares "Unbound", the staggering lead cut from long-awaited second LP Afterglow.
The acclaimed multi-instrumentlist released his debut album In The Silence far too long ago - but it's clear his return is worth the wait. Electronica infiltrates Ásgeir's deeply affecting folk structures - it's not far removed from Bon Iver's beautiful chaos.
"I consider myself lucky to have been able to go around the world with my friends to play," Ásgeir says. "Before touring I had only been to Sweden and Denmark. Now I don’t even remember where I have been or where I have not been."
For Afterglow Ásgeir has teamed again with his father – poet and Ólafur Arnalds collaborator Einar Georg Einarsson – and Guðmundur Kristinn Jónsson. Ásgeir's brother Thorsteinn and Julius Robertsson have also contributed.
"I feel like I have achieved plenty already with this album, gotten to know myself better, feel like I’ve grown a lot. Not just because of the album, but it has definitely helped," Ásgeir says of the new LP's personal impact.
