On our final day at Aldrei in Ísafjörður, we had a huge Easter sunday dinner with all the bands who performed at the festival. I'm a huge sap so you know I totally melted at the heartwarming vibe. Before dinner, I chatted with one of the founders, fellow Icelandic musician, Mugison. The idea for Aldrei fór ég suður (I never went south) started over a pint of beer between Mugison and his father, who were both born in Ísafjörður. Their passion to show off Iceland's vibrant music scene paralleled with Ísafjörður’s offbeat location and relaxed atmosphere is a combination for festival-success. 

TALKING TO MUGISON WITH HIS WIFE LOOKING OVER. VERY CUTE.
