If the internet did something good, it was giving the world KEXP
I was in Iceland once, and believe me, you can feel this kind of music in the air.
Life goal: be as happy as that drummer.
Hard out .hes a classic
Well he has a Willie Nelson Tshirt on, so we know from where does his happyness come from... :-D
Humble guy, amazing music.
Cheryl Waters is ALWAYS the consummate professional! Such a great interviewer! She is a walking music encyclopedia!
That drummer is intense, love it!
William Patino lol you must be trolling...
Riot 207 I love drummers like Carter Beauford, but it's not always necessary. You can be "next level" without trying to do too much. This drummer is phenomenal. He's technically sound. He knows when to throw in fills and when to keep it simple. He knows when to keep it clean, and he knows when to open it up. His playing gives the songs texture. For instance, at 25:52, 21:33, 22:42, 4:27, and 19:45.
He reminds me of the drummer from Rumspringa. If you haven't, you should check out their live version of "Shake Em Loose Tonight." I think you'll see what I mean. That video of Rumspringa, like this video, showcases a drummer who really has an ear for music and knows how to shape a song without overpowering it.
Thank you for your recommendation, I'll be sure to check him out.
I personally don't like the electronic kit he plays during this session. I feel Asgier sounds so much better acoustic than with full band. I just don't feel that Carter Beauford is a Neil Peart(Rush) or a Keith Moon(The Who) and will never be, especially if he stays to the electric drum bull crap.. (I am extremely against that type of drum style, I find it sounds cheap.)
+William Patino he's probably high. Explains his Willie Nelson t-shirt.
+William Patino His name is Helgi Svavar, he´s one of the best drummers in Iceland.
It's cute, he's so shy :)
They are so talented, can't stop listening to their stuff !
+Enola L. they are not shy, they are awkward.
@@martinknap8466 Well, I would prefer being awkward over being a mean asshole (like you) any time :)
@@martinknap8466 just like me fr
The host was so sweet and genuinely seemed interested in them! That's always great to see - someone who has taken the time to do their research. Especially considering he is quite shy, so she was able to guide their interview sessions well! :)
IDK if theres something in the water, but iceland cranks out some amazing music! love it!
It might our water is great! Hehe I think it's about that how big the music scene here in Iceland is for such a small country, the musicians here all know each other and you have to have a different sound from each other and that maybe pushes them to find a different sound, idk, it's just a thought!
I figured it was because you have to have some way of dealing with life when you live in darkness for half the year...
Seriously though. Asgeir. Kaleo. Of Monsters and Men. It's amazing.
Methane gas is in the water
God i love KEXP, always bringing in the most interesting artists.
Their sounds and his voice are really touching my soul, softly...
I find it pretty unbelievable that this doesn't even have 500k views in 10 years. Waiting for Ásgeir to blow up and this video getting millions of views.
Watching in 2019 and still love the music. Great performance and host.
2021 and i love these guys!
Amazing guy and amazing music I love it! Iceland is on my list for sure especially after hearing his music. Representing Iceland In a great way.
I saw them this weekend when they opened for Hozier at the Orphium .....they did amazing. I have found another band that I love and will play on repeat!!!!
Love the host Cheryl! She is the best host ever :) and Asgeir is amazing.
0:28 going home
06:11 summer guest
18:41 king and cross
22:28 ao grafa sig i fonn
he is just so talented! obsessed with his voice and his sound!
Ásgeir is phenomenal. Home is phenomenal.
But none of it all is as phenomenal as the drummer at 0:29.
Hell, even at 4:44.
+Jacques Gross i can't stop laughing hahahahahahahahahaha
This is a lovely set. I had the pleasure of seeing Ásgeir live three times as Hozier's opener and was very impressed. Thanks for this, KEXP!
saw them live by accident in Copenhagen on a weekly summer event called Friday rock. unbelievable and I am hooked. I'm south african and live in London. keep up the great work and would love to see them live again - hopefully in Iceland👌
Tivoli ❤️ :) :)
But I missed them this round :(
Maybe someday, someplace else ...
Talented, sweet and handsome.
And a great host.
Angelic harmony :D
Awesome.......... Musical,Mood, Minimal, and Beutiful emotion
Amazing performance of such a moving music by an overwhelming gang of musicians!
Thank you KEXP for the live-stream of this performance! Technology is great, I was watching this performance live from the other end of the world (in Indonesia) on the palm of my hand through my iPod touch. I would love to see him live one day though! :)
Adhi S we live in such a good time
@@bartjuhh12 2015-16 were such good times :')
@@RubenSprng absolutely, still are :)
@@bartjuhh12 glad to see after 7 years you're still here on youtube haha! Cheers
LOVE LOVE LOVE this album and this was a gorgeous performance...Juli (sp.) never gets quite enough credit though...he's been here since the very beginning and seems to contribute a LOT...
Jesus this is amazing....love the deep expressions of voice and synthesized beats
I was in Iceland once, and believe me, you can feel this kind of music in the air.
The first song, EARGASM.
Oh my god! This is so incredible performance
Your English translation is perfect. Your entire team is just STELLAR thank you for your beautiful music. Cat, Golden Colorado USA XD
KEXP, the greatest radio station in the world.
Wow this is Amazing the keyboarding is insane.Well done Asgeir! and high 5 to the drummer!
It would be absolutely incredible to see this band with brass and orchestral sections like they talk about during the interview
I cry with joy when they perform!
the most beautiful thing I've seen in a while :P
thanks for this beauty! hugs from Italy!
You literally have no idea how excited this is making me !!! Friday at the Fonda in LA is going to be unreal
these guys are too good omg
I just learned how heinously wrong I've been pronouncing his name this whole time. Sorry man. This music resonates hard, all of it. So much talent!
Beautiful music
Beautiful I bet Gods weeps 2 this song
Oooh I love him so much
I wish I can see him perform live here in the Philippines
This is my first time hearing this in english and I think it is just a totally different dimension almost like 2 different bands.
Love all your work. The funny thing is when you sing home (one of my Favorites) I think of pictures of Iceland! Not bad! Ontario, Canada An Icelander Ef aðeins í anda.
Shiiiiiiiiiiy that version of King and Cross was so good!!!
WOW got my attention. Opening so alive ... !!!
Franky S lol always a crabby pants in the bunch
i like his character
Can't wait for them to come to Australia on the 8th next month!
seeing, hearing, guys...making beautiful music...gets me high
Only just discovered Ásgeir's beautiful music, why didn't I find it sooner?
Amasing singer, awesome music! Takk!
Great music great guys
KEXP! Love you, people radio!
Music from island......
your passion so refreshing
3:48 gets me every time. Sounds like whales crying for their "lost homes" on the oceans. I love this dude!
I did not expect them to sound anything like this. Goes to show you never to assume what they sound like based on their clothing.
Sometimes I don't even understand how I don't find out about these bands sooner. This is pretty good and the interview is so awkward in the best way :)
hahahaah kexp interviews are always a bit awkward. don't know why... check the one for Bomba Estereo and the one for Kimbra...
Mário Longhi Wow, so the Kimbra was here on KEXP too? That's great, have to check her performance, thanks. =)
Sergey Shidlovsky yes, just search "kimbra full performance kexp". as per usual, she was amazing live (better than studio version!)
Mário Longhi I wonder each time, how all these guys can sound so beautiful: the mix is always very precise, you can listen to anybody who you interested in. Just great work of hosts, sound and video engineers... just amazing. =)
how good is the harmonizing by the back up singer!!
I would love to hear him collaborate with Sóley
Love Asgeir, so excellent and love Iceland of course !!!!!
wow. such a complex sound. i love this!
Tnx KEXP!
this is amazing ...
Amazing live performance! 🔥
Great Artist; Band & Music.....
I mean that in the nicest way possible, truly...
I should have gone to his concert that was held last year in Seoul. I wanna listen his music in front of him.
내한한적이 있나요?!
+Hs Kim 작년 1월 17일에 현대카드 5 nights에서 공연했어요 (루디멘탈이 급 취소해서 4 nights가 되긴 했지만..).
You're amazing Asgeir
Amazing. I love it
Powerful music, very intense. Love the instrumental :)
thank you....
Under rated artist.
"Going home" ending is amazing
Does anybody know what the deal is with their outfits? Is this sort of Appalachian American-style popular in Iceland? Is it part of their image for this musical project? Coming from Texas, I see the camouflage, flannel, and trucker hats in a certain sense and did not expect to see it here with these musicians! Totally curious. Great music!
just got back from Iceland, totally in vogue, beards a must, long eylashes to keep your eyes from freezing and trucker hats under hoods totally on trend.
yeb the beard thing has been going on here for some time now, i am guilty as well, but mainly because is use it as an excuse to not shave..
believe me when i say that there clothes are not part of an image, this is music for the sake of music, there is no such thing as an pre fabricated image
so good!!!!
Nice tunes!
Thanks Coffee 😉 liebe Grüße aus Riesa.
Oh it was funny when Cheryl said she 'heard about' Iceland Airwaves and smiled ^_^
Holy shit. He's hot AND talented
great band
magic from north
I love him pretty voice
Love
bliss
¡Impecable!
I like the Icelandic versions better.
Ásgeir!
The drummer at 4:43 reminds me of some kind of crazed percussion pirate
😍💜
I can't believe i was sleepin on him. 🤦🏿♂️
wow.........
Harmonies remind me of State Radio/Dispatch
Chills
Wonderful
That drummer's beard is dope
Yeah

Hey Cisco!
