Wed 28th PLEASE NOTE THAT THE LINE-UP FOR THIS EVENT HAS NOW CHANGED. MUGISON AND SUPPORTS ARE NO LONGER PERFORMING Due to unforeseen circumstances, the headlining band (Mugison) have cancelled their European tour and subsequently their Reykjavik Nights gig (with support from Petur Ben and Mara Carlyle) We will offer full refunds to anyone who has already purchased tickets but, in order not to disappoint our music-loving friends, we've taken the opportunity to book a whole new evening of Icelandic music featuring Bloodgroup, Sometime and Sven Bit.

Two Little Dogs PR and Icelandic Music Exports presents
Doors 7.30 Following September's sell out Iceland Airwaves festival preview party in London, Reykjavik Nights is pleased to announce another date in the Capital featuring Iceland's most exciting electro groups and more free Reyka vodka than you can shake a barbecued puffin at. The evening's headline band, Bloodgroup, are an established name on the Icelandic live music circuit, having been formed in 2005 by ringleader Raggi along with members of his family and their friends. Together they formed a band that's gained an enviable reputation for playing "powerful and funky rock-influenced electro-dance-pop" (The Reykjavik Grapevine) at summer festivals around the world and, to top off a perfect year for the band, they've recently recorded and released their debut album 'Sticky Situation' to the acclaim of the local music press. Sometime, the evening's first supporting band, are the Crosby, Still, Nash & Young of Icelandic dance music. Consisting of Danni (synths & electronic drums), Diva De La Rosa (vocals) DJ Dice (turntables & fx) and Oculus (audio manipulations), four famed veterans of the vibrant Icelandic music scene, they released their debut record in October following a miraculous rise to fame in 2007. Sometime sound a little like an updated version of Kraftwerk with gorgeous vocals lashed over the sort of beats that have kept many a bar in Reykjavik bursting until dawn and they are, quite simply, one of Iceland's newest and most exciting live dance acts. Joining Bloodgroup and Sometime we're also delighted to welcome Reykjavik-based techno minimalist Sven Bit as the opening act.
