Hey. The Icelandics were formed as a natural progression from a long-lasting band escaping to separate corners of the country. With the rest of the players absent, The Icelandics were forced to be more creative. Basically we are a drummer who wants to play keys and arrange songs, grabbing anyone within reach for collabs. This guy, Mr. Icelandic, has long arms and will one day come for YOU. Really.
The Icelandics history can be found at www.gotbeard.com.
Recently, in hotel rooms around the New England and New York area. Lately, in a bar in Seattle. Mostly, on the subway.

and every other musical resource I can record.
Music is life. Well, it represents it anyway. I prefer to live my life like a comedy show by pushing every bit of funny into everyone around me. Even after the show's over. Walking on the sunny side of the street can be tough in New York, so I carry flashlights.
My music portrays this. Don't listen for life-changing advice or tears over exes, you won't find it here (try Barry Manilo). Listen because you dig the positive vibe and want to recreate good feelings instantly by pressing PLAY.
Bow Down to the Beard!
