Ólöf Arnalds is airing a new track called "Viðihlið" ahead of her support tour with Swedish folk marvel José González.
The track, originally by "countrculture hero" Megas, who found acclaim in the '60s and '70s, is a tender folk ditty with a title that means, literally translated, 'wood side'.
It acts as the B-side to Arnalds' upcoming single "Hypnose", out 23 March on One Little Indian.
Arnalds will tour the UK with González in March - all her international dates can be discovered here.
Listen to "Viðihlið" below.
