One of the most interesting festivals every year is Iceland Airwaves. This year, following an obvious year away physically (the fest still existed virtually), will see the event return to downtown Reykjavík on Nov. 3-6. As usual, the tastemaking festival features a nice blend of international and Icelandic artists, including two of our favorites with Arlo Parks and Bartees Strange, who featured very prominently on our best of 2020 albums and songs lists.
Other artists include perennial Grammy favorites (and San Antonio Spurs fans) Black Pumas, British rockers Squid, Crack Cloud, Metronomy, Pale Moon, and many more.
Check out the full lineup below. You can grab tickets for the in-person event here.
