Theremin specialist Hekla announces new album, Turnar

The upcoming album was recorded partly in (and named after) a medieval castle tower in rural France, its ruinous black broken in spare beams of angelic stained-glass light. But, writes Hekla, "the sound of theremin kind of opens up a portal into a new realm that both looks into a dark old world and to the future."

Turnar will be Hekla’s third album, following her 2018 debut Á and 2022’s Xiuxiuejar. In celebration of the release, Hekla will be playing a headline gig at Cafe OTO in London on 5 March.
