JFDR (IS) | at NoD

“Are you more comfortable in your dreams or in reality?” That question sits at the core of JFDR’s whole work. She’s been praised for her ability to bottle a silvery wind and then let it spill through the speakers and coalesce into a mystic cloud in your mind. That quality runs through Ákadóttir’s prolific catalog in projects such as Pascal Pinon, Samaris, Gangly, and more. On her upcoming album New Dreams, Ákadóttir wields that shapeshifting beauty with a refreshing command, leaning fully into the spiritual journey of electroacoustic wonder. Ákadóttir owns every element of her music, and yet it feels like a surreal landscape left to mutate and grow to its own devices. If you are a fan of restrained yet powerful vocals, almost a whisper at times, come see her in concert at NoD in April.
