ÁSGEIR ANNOUNCES NZ & AUSTRALIAN TOUR WITH DATES IN MELBOURNE, SYDNEY, BRISBANE & PERTH THIS JUNE

Icelandic singer-songwriter and musician Ásgeir announces his 2023 NZ and Australian tour. Bringing his acclaimed discography to the stage with headline dates in Auckland, Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Perth across May and June.

As one of Iceland’s most successful exports, Ásgeir has spent the time between his record-breaking debut album (now celebrating its 10th anniversary) and today pushing the boundaries of his textured, thoughtful brand of folk-pop. He released his fourth studio album, Time On My Hands, in October via One Little Independent Records and shared a new single this month, ‘Dan Nos Rêves’ (In Our Dreams), a collaboration with French singer Clou.

His 2022 fourth studio album, Time On My Hands, sees Ásgeir in a state of self-reflection and experimentation, having spent much of the last few years in his home and in the studio deeply engrossed in writing, recording, translating and producing. On this album, he’s entered new realms of composition, sensitively layering acoustics with electronics and brass. As with some of his previous work, most notably 2017’s Afterglow and 2020’s Bury The Moon, Ásgeir plays with euphoric and choral elements of electronic pop music while keeping a tight grasp on the introspective, vocal-lead style of the acoustica that made him famous.
