Rauður

Rauður is the stage name of Icelandic musician Auður Viðarsdóttir. Formerly a member of Nóra, a renown band active in Iceland’s music scene a few years back, the keyboardist and singer has now emerged as a solo artist. Having plugged in her first synthesizer (and later a microphone) as a teenager in an old garage in her hometown Reykjavík, Auður has slowly developed her music into a unique soundscape, perhaps in harmony with the sound of her own name – totally unpronounceable for people who don’t speak Icelandic.

Her voice weaves together with eccentric beats and captivating melodies that take listeners through highs and lows, while her accompanying Icelandic lyrics tend to shed forth different types of ever looming apocalypses – sometimes pretty, sometimes crude – but always fascinating. Rauður takes inspiration from everything that has struck her chords through the years, most recently prominent artists such as Jenny Hval, Beth Gibbons, Susanne Sundför and Grimes, to name only a few. And Björk of course. P.S. rauður means red.
