Ólöf Arnalds plays the East Village Radio Music Festival
A self trained guitarist and master of a variety of instruments, Icelandic folk singer Ólöf Arnalds has been a prominent figure in her native music scene for a number of years. Between 2003 and 2007, Ólöf was an active member of Múm, contributing violin, viola, guitar, and vocals both live and on record. However, it's her solo debut, Við og Við, which continues to garner widespread acclaim. Produced by Kjartan Sveinsson from Sigur rós, Við og Við won Best Alternative Album at the 2007 Iceland Music Awards as well as Record of the Year at Iceland's biggest daily newspaper, Morgunblaðið, beating off competition from Björk and Múm.
On Saturday, September 6, she will join Boris, Mark Ronson, Flying Lotus, High Places, Awesome Color, Vivian Girls, Dr. Lonnie Smith, and host KRS-One on the bill at the South Street Seaport to celebrate East Village Radio's 5 year anniversary. Be sure to get there early as Ólöf plays at 2:30pm.
