Í nóvember ár hvert fyllist Reykjavík af lífi og tónlist í hverjum krók og kima þar sem upprennandi íslenskir listamenn og alþjóðlegar stórstjörnur koma fram og leika list sína. Á hátíðina mæta tónlistarunnendur sem ráfa um tónleikastaði í leit að næstu stjörnum íslensks tónlistarlífs eða til að horfa á sitt uppáhalds atriði.
Iceland Airwaves er óumdeilanlega mikilvægasti stökkpallur og kynningarvettvangur fyrir íslenska tónlist og tækifæri fyrir tónlistarunnendur til að sjá heimsklassa tónlistarfólk koma fram og í leiðinni uppgötva eitthvað nýtt í borg sem skapar einstaka stemningu sem fólk víðsvegar af úr heiminum sækist eftir ár eftir ár.

RA: Resident Advisor
Daði Freyr is an Icelandic singer, songwriter, and producer known for his witty lyricism, infectious synth-pop, and joyful unpredictability. He rose to global attention with his 2020 hit "Think About Things", which went viral during lockdown, earning over 100 million streams and praise from P!nk, James Corden, and Russell Crowe.
His new album Too Much, Not Enough, out May 8th, marks a new chapter. Co-written with collaborators for the first time, it's his most emotionally honest work yet: a record about self-acceptance, about being who you actually are rather than who you think others want to see.
After years in Berlin, Daði returned to Iceland in 2025, and that sense of coming home, of settling into something real, runs through every track.
This autumn, Daði brings his live show to the US and Canada. Performing alone on stage with self-built instruments and hand-crafted visuals, it's an intimate, one-of-a-kind experience and the connection with his audience remains, as ever, the thing he loves most.
Mammút are melodic and catchy and beautiful and addictive. They are also darker and heavier than you think they are—maybe they tricked you? This is true though: Mammút craft distorted and beautiful lullabies while maintaining a solid grasp on melody and an eternally independent spirit.

Golden pastures applaud as the passerines take the sky as their stage, puttering roots beneath humming groves, sonorous winds welcoming evergreen for a dance. All is a choir, a masque, a performance, and everyone is promised to play a part."

Dove Ellis is a songwriter and performer from the west of Ireland. In the UK and Ireland’s ever-accelerating music scene, genres are dissolving faster than ever before, and Dove is a prime example of this shapeshifting Next-Gen.

Joe and The Shitboys are a band of “bisexual vegans” from the Faroe Islands. How do we know that? Because it’s the very first thing they say on stage at Gaukurinn, the cult venue in downtown Reykjavik on Saturday night (November 9). The venue is beloved by its attendees for several reasons: the food menu is Vegan-only (and delicious), and the establishment only features gender-neutral bathrooms. Gaukurinn describes themselves as a “queer friendly space”, and asks patrons to bring, “joy, love and respect”. – Thomas Smith (NME)
Since their start in 2012, five-piece Oyama has been building a steady reputation as one of Reykjavík’s finest rock bands. Their sound is rooted in the shoegaze of the 90s, and their music pivots between soothing, airy dream pop and fuzzy, psychedelic noise rock. The band reaches high sonic peaks and awakens deep sensations with its mixture of spacious, noisy soundscapes, tender vocal harmonies, and lyrics built on a solid foundation of teen angst and enduring friendship.
Oyama have released two LPs (‘Coolboy’ and ‘Everyone Left’) and two EPs (‘I Wanna’ and ‘Opaque Days’). They have performed at showcase festivals and events all over Europe, including Iceland Airwaves, Eurosonic, by Larm, The Great Escape, Club NME, Ja Ja Ja, and Air D’Islande, as well as playing to packed audiences in Japan.

Róshildur is the musical alias of the Icelandic/Danish performance artist Anna Róshildur. Róshildur’s alternative pop is a blend of melodic, stacked vocals and textured production. With her debut EP, titled (V2,2), she showcases herself as a songwriter, producer and performer. Róshildur was crowned the One to Watch at the 2024 Reykjavík Grapevine Music Awards.
