Who? Formed in Reykjavik, Iceland in 1994, Sigur Ros released one critically acclaimed album (along with an LP of remixes the following year) in their homeland before going international with the release of Ágætis Byrjun in 1999, which quickly catapulted them onto the radar of American and European music fans.

The Icelandic outfit's ethereal, orchestrated epics will return to the U.S. on a 17-date jaunt, set to kick off Sept. 17 in New York City.

Who? Icelandic post-rockers Sigur Ros, which at the core comprises four members, though numerous others -- including horn, string, and glockenspiel players -- are added to flesh out the band's ornate, transcendental tunes live.
