Artist Spotlight: Hermigervill

Today, we kick off another week of Artist Spotlight and head over to Reykjavik, Iceland where we come across the ever vibrant sounds of Hermigervill. His music is a unique and refreshing blend of electronic music based upon a layer of synth waves that are extremely mellow and subtle that it goes down smoothly like the Reyka vodka that is native to their homeland, and you can tell how much he genuinely loves playing music to a room packed full of curious listeners. I got the opportunity to catch him in concert this past Saturday at the Reykjavik Calling festival at The Middle East Downstairs, and I was equally impressed with how he didn't take himself too seriously, and you can clearly tell how much he was enjoying playing while on stage and was having the time of his life with his long hair waving in the wind and his epic beard expressing the free wheeling and laid back personality that permeates his body. A terrific performer that is one of the most unique human beings that I've encountered in my musical travels. Some songs of his for you to check out include "I Reykjavikurborg" and "Gvendur a Eyrinni".
