The band, led by gay frontman Jonsi, will perform new music as well as its catalog of signature songs over the band’s 25 year tenure.
The announcement came after the band released the first dates of its first world tour in almost five years. From ATTPAC: Sigur Rós are one of the most successful bands of recent times and one of Iceland’s most successful acts of all time, with six number ones in their home country and a trio of platinum albums globally.
In the years since Kveikur, the band launched the ‘Liminal’ soundbaths and endless playlists, built around blissed-out re-imaginings of moments from Sigur Rós’s catalogue both familiar and obscure.
