The Line of Best Fit
(News)
What happens when you take a band who are heavily reliant on swooping strings and studio atmospherics to create their multi-textured music and leave them with just two acoustic guitars on a jetty in the middle of London’s Embankment? You’re about to find out.
Rökkurró produce the kind heart wrenching, mesmerising tones that are impossible not to form an instant emotional attachement to. Swapping the bleak, Nordic landscapes of their Icelandic homeland, here Rökkurró offer up this magical rendition of Sjónarspil.
