Looks like Sigur Ros,’ Jónsi Birgisson has been keeping busy this year with all sorts of projects. First he started an ethereal ambient collaboration with his boyfriend Alex Sommers titled Jónsi & Alex. Now the Icelandic talent, know for his use of a cello bow on guitar and his enchanting falsetto is going solo.
Jónsi has put out a new album titled “Go” set to come out March 22, 2010. Starting off as a small scale acoustic project, it turned into a full-on bonafide solo project once producer and Peter Katis (Fanfarlo and The National) and drummer Samuli (Mum) came on board.
It’s expected to be some glorious mayhem! Check out the tracklisting below and download a FREE track of the first song “Boy Lilikoi” here.
