  • Interview with Rosa from Icelandic band, Feldberg

    Icelandic duo Feldberg are releasing their single ‘Dreamin’ on July 29th through Irish label, Smalltown America and are taking in an Irish tour at the same time.

    Trying to get through to Rosa’s phone has me laughing, Toto’s Africa is playing but this isn’t a voicemail message. You get it when her phone rings, this immediately sets the stage for Rosa’s upbeat and bubbly personality.

    Made up of Einar Tönsberg, (better known as Eberg) and Rosa Briggita Ísfeld, a vocalist and electro DJ by night, the duo got together when Rosa was recommended to Einar by friends. Einar had been working as an electronic musician in London and had his song ‘Inside Your Head’ used in The O.C. and Veronica Mars. ‘It was just really lucky, came back home and was working on a sync for an advertisement, he needed a female voice and he asked around and apparently three people recommended me, thankfully. He phoned me up one evening, it was nine thirty or almost ten, so I could hear he was a bit stressed and was like ‘I have this sync and would you be willing to come into the studio?’ I said ‘I came come now if you have a deadline’, so I go to the studio and we do that little bit.’ (more…)
