Welcome to 66 Degrees of Sound by The Reykjavík Grapevine, where Grapevine journalists Rex Beckett and Jóhannes Bjarkason discuss the latest Icelandic music releases. Your one-stop shop for brand new Icelandic music, join us every Friday for the weekly roundup.
In this episode, Jói is still on holiday and Rex is joined by the Grapevine's Editor-in-Chief, Catharine Fulton, filling in as co-host. We have a delightful time talking to musician-dancer star on the rise Torfi, take a sidequest with Á.Við, tame a lion with Hera Lind, and take another daily apocalypse walk with MSEA. Sidequests include: the relative concept of summer, Beyoncé in concert, and imaginary sponsors.

Á.Við. — Detour (released June 1)
Hera Lind — Hungry Lion (released June 8)
