Asgeir - Afterglow LP (Limited Coloured Vinyl)

Singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and collaborator Ásgeir released Afterglow in 2017. The Icelandic artist spent three years honing and perfecting the eleven tracks that make up this magnificent and affecting body of work. Lead single ‘Unbound’ is a stunning, yearning piece of music – surely a career-defining moment for the musician. The follow-up to debut album In The Silence was greatly anticipated by fans worldwide. 

On this record Ásgeir departs from the sentiment and sound of his debut album in many ways, bringing a great deal more electronic instrumentation into the fold, and adopting r’n’b and soul elements. The album leaves behind the folk-tinged acoustics of In The Silence and dives head first into melancholic, melodic electronica in its purest form. The spell-binding artist has once again collaborated with his father, Einar Georg, who is credited with writing the lyrics for the entire album alongside long-time musical collaborators, Ásgeir’s brother, Thorsteinn, Julius Robertsson and Hogni.
