Arnalds opens the 11-minute session with a performance of "saman", before teamingn up with Josin and the Reykjavík Recording Orchestra for "The Bottom Line" - a track that appeared on his 2020 album Some Kind Of Peace. He closes the Sunrise Session with a rendition of his Bonobo collaboration "Loom".
In the video description, Arnalds wrote, "On this shortest day of the year, this is our tribute to brighter days ahead and I truly hope you enjoy it. Wishing you all wonderful holidays!"
