Interview with Soley; Performed at Iceland Airwaves event during @sxsw @soleysoleysoley
Soley, along with her band mates Jón Óskar Jónsson (drums) and Albert Finnbogason (keys&guitar,) bring a dark, inspired alt-pop sound, with plenty of sonic possibility through the usage of live loop sampling.

The Bottom Dollars
The Nuclears
Deathrow Tull
The Bottom Dollars are one of Brooklyn, NY’s finest undiscovered quintets right now and they’re hitting the road right now with their self proclaimed “brothers-in-rock:” The Nuclears & Deathrow Tull.
I was introduced to the group by someone I hardly knew who asked if I had any vacancies on a showcase I was throwing in Austin and, after YouTubing their cover of “Higher and Higher” for about 45 seconds, I knew they’d be a good choice to rev up the crowd.
