  • Bio

    Go to www.svavarknutur.com for the official Svavar Knútur website.... Icelandic singer/songwriter full of a merry mixture of melancholy and joy to spray over the earth and all its inhabitants. Sadness is in my opinion one of the healing forces of the earth, and sorrow without regret is a powerful thing. Exploring the path from Misery to Redemption. I can be happy sometimes... Sing about joyful things, but happiness cannot be reached without a proper understanding of sadness. I normally don't do requests, unless somebody asks me..... ..Unsure how to pronounce my name? ..Please listen to this....... ..Currently chilling out in Iceland for a couple of weeks. .. Looking forward to a tour of UK, France and Germany this fall..... Looking forward to seeing you guys at a concert soon! :D And now for something completely different! .... A wonderful video to my song Yfir hóla og yfir hæðir .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .... .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ...... .... ..........
