Equally adept as a composer, producer and keyboardist, Magnús Jóhann’s presence was a marker of quality on hundreds of contemporary pop, r&b and hip-hop recordings in Iceland long before his eclectic interests exploded onto ambitious solo albums spanning introspective jazz, timeless popular songs, dissonant string scores and oddball electronics. Since his teens, he has been an artist in high demand and the variety of projects he’s worked on has seen him grow in many directions simultaneously. Nevertheless, he has carved out a personal sonic niche characterised by bold melodic colours and a healthy disregard for genre conventions. The critically acclaimed Icelandic artist merges contemporary classical piano with jazz and electronics and is an award winning live performer. An ethereal and dynamic performance with emotional depth and cinematic qualities is what one can expect at one of his concerts.
