I saw Feldberg a couple of times at Iceland Airwaves last year and came away singing their track, "Don't Be A Stranger" for months and months afterwards. They've been described, brilliantly, as what Daft Punk would sound like if they were human. The marriage (musical only, I believe) of Eberg's (also a solo artist with a couple of excellent albums under this belt) music with Rósa's silky, bluesy vocals works beautifully. I had a quick chat with the male half (with beard, left) of Feldberg…
Hi Eberg, where are you right now and what are you doing?
I´m in my kitchen… in a little flat in downtown Reykjavik… I need to do the dishes
Who is in the band?
To start with me and Rósa Ísfeld but now playing with us as well Nói Steinn (drums) Sigtryggur Ari (keys) and Haraldur Þorsteinsson (bass)
There will be 5 other bands playing at the same time as you – so why should people choose your show?
Because we have a dead sexy drummer.
Have you seen the festival line-up? What other bands are you excited to see?
Not seen it yet… I always just wait until the last minute deciding what to see.
And finally, how about a few local tips for the festival first-timers?
Buy booze in the duty free… dress up warmly and have fun
