Icelander Ásgeir is inspired by his native landscape and country’s traditional folk music on his new album. Connecting to his homeland's roots and music allowed the introverted artist to rely on acoustic arrangements. "Pictures" is translated into English from his native tongue and outlines a meditative view on quotidian life.

See Ásgeir Live in SoCal

March 10 @ Teragram Ballroom in DTLA
