Bryn’s Music Selection // Frakkur

In today’s #brynsmusicselection I want to introduce you to a solo project of Jónsi.

Jón Þór “Jónsi” Birgisson (pronounced [ˈjouːn ˈθouːr ˈpɪrcɪsɔːn, ˈjounsɪ]; born 23 April 1975) is an Icelandic musician. He is the vocalist and multi-instrumentalist for the Icelandic post-rock band Sigur Rós. He is known for his use of a cello bow on guitar and his falsetto or countertenor voice. He is blind in his right eye from birth as a result of a broken optic nerve from the brain. He is openly gay. Apart from Sigur Rós, Jónsi also performs together with his partner Alex Somers as an art collaboration called Jónsi & Alex.
