The Line of Best Fit
Icelandic musical prodigy JFDR will play a last minute all-ages show in East London this Thursday.
The solo project of Gangly, Samaris and Pascal Pinon members Jófríður Ákadóttir, JFDR's debut Brazil was a Best Fit album of the week earlier this year.
JFDR's show takes place this Thursday (25 May) at East London's Archspace and is open to all ages.
As one of the most creative forces in Icelandic music right now, Ákadóttir was namechecked by Björk as one of her inspirations last year and we picked her as one of five artists set to conquer the world in our latest Ones To Watch list.
