About
If there’s one thing pianist Magnús Jóhann and saxophonist Óskar Guðjónsson have in common it’s an all consuming curiosity towards the world. Whether it’s espresso machines, saxophone mouthpieces or music of all kinds the pair can talk and listen for hours on end about the things that interest them. Born and raised in Reykjavík roughly twenty years apart Óskar and Magnús found common ground in the seemingly quintessentially Icelandic sound of their music. Óskar, a founding member of the band ADHD, was approached by Magnús in the fall of 2022 with the idea of making a duo record. They rehearsed weekly until their recording dates in May 2023 and both wrote new music specifically for the occasion.
