Icelandic electronic dream-pop trio Vök gained recognition within months of forming when they won Iceland’s prestigious Músíktilraunir (‘Music Experiments’), Their triumph soon led to the release of their debut EP Tension. They began to further mark themselves out as rising innovators of smart, atmospheric jams on their second EP Circles. Hailed by Noisey as “channelling the Beach soundtrack via 1980s synth pop and the modern sexiness of The Knife”.

Winning numerous new fans along the way with their brand of dreamy electronics with melodic vocals, the band soon caught the attention of Nettwerk Music Group (Angus & Julia Stone, Mallrat, The Veils), who instantly signed them for an international record deal. 2017 saw the release of their highly anticipated debut LP ‘Figure’. The Line of Best Fit hailed it a “brilliant debut album”. ‘Figure’ won Album of the Year in the Electronic Music category at Icelandic Music Awards 2018.
