The Current is organizing a trip to the Iceland Airwaves Festival in 2023, with host Ayisha Jaffer along for the adventure between Oct. 30 and Nov. 5. On today’s Coffee Break, we’re taking the opportunity to celebrate some of the great music that originated there.

In addition to Björk and Of Monsters and Men, there are many other excellent Icelandic musicians to include in this morning’s set.
