Lunchtime Melodies will this time be dedicated to country songs. Soffía Björg Óðinsdóttir, a country girl from Borgarfjörður, wears many hats—she works as a musician, songwriter, lyricist, guitarist, and singer.
She will perform alongside Leifur Gunnarsson, a double bass player, presenting well-known hits and songs that had a significant impact on Soffía at the beginning of her singing career.
Her main influences include stars such as Neil Young, Leonard Cohen, Emiliana Torrini, Sinéad O’Connor, and John Prine.
Lunchtime Melodies is a series of concerts at the library, where Leifur Gunnarsson, together with selected well-known musicians from the scene, will perform each time.
Free entry and everyone is welcome!
