Sigur Ros Tickets

Formed in 1994, this experimental Icelandic group first came to mainstream attention with the release of their second album, Agaetis Byrjun, and in particular the single Svefn-g-englar.
Combining the traditional instruments of the rock band with some novel playing techniques, they manage to create an incredibly fragile, complex and unique sound, with a sparseness and atmosphere that evokes strong imagery of their homeland.

In 2023, Sigur Rós set upon having orchestral accompaniment as part of their tours, with the band wanting to put a spotlight on a series of phenomenal orchestras around the world, not just themselves. Having reunited with keyboardist Kjartan Sveinsson in 2022, the members played alongside full orchestras in grand concert halls worldwide. The performances are simultaneously as expressive and indescribable as the band themselves, all a testament to the timeless pull of Sigur Rós.

 At the start of the new decade, the band dove deep into their archives for long-anticipated works. They first released Odin’s Raven Magic (2020), an orchestral album originally made nearly two decades prior, and later reissued ( ) for its 20th anniversary in 2022. Their first collection of new material in nearly a decade, ÁTTA (2023) leans heavily towards the orchestral, featuring contributions from the London Contemporary Orchestra. Last September the band released a special 20th anniversary edition of their acclaimed album Takk… - their major label debut and a commercial breakthrough for a band that has never sought the mainstream - remastered by Ted Jensen at Sterling Sound.

With close to ten million albums sold, Sigur Rós stands as one of the most ambitious and acclaimed bands of recent times, whose new artistic endeavours only points towards an expansive, exciting future.
