Press release: Björk
Laugardalshöll 19th December

Björk to finish her acclaimed world tour, at home in Iceland! Björk has been on tour since early August, playing in intimate venues across Europe and The USA. Venues have included New York's 300 capacity Riverside Church which 30,000 people applied for tickets to see her perform without a microphone.

After extensively touring her critically acclaimed album, Vespertine, around the world for the past few months, Iceland are more than excited at the prospect of her performing again on her home ground, just a few days before Christmas. Mr. Destiny, the promoters who brought you Iceland Airwaves 99-01, are proud to announce Björk's first concert in Iceland in over 2 years in co-operation with Bad Taste.

"What began as a sophisticated recital of Björk's most chilling songs - a good number of which stemmed from her quiet, introspective new album, Vespertine - heated up during the second set, where she elevated the audience along with the tempo.

"With a 54-piece orchestra before her, an 11-woman choir behind, and flanked by avant-garde harpist/accordionist Zeena Parkins and electronic experimental duo Matmos (who earlier served as opening act), Björk alternately cooed and belted through the Vespertine tracks "Harm of Will," "It's Not Up to You" and "Hidden Place," as well as the solemn "I've Seen It All" from last year's "Dancer in the Dark" companion album, Selmasongs. Icy, blue-hued images of snow drifts and stalactites were projected on a backdrop, further emphasising the mood. Her powerful voice filled the legendary venue's cavernous interior, often drowning out her onstage constituents."
