the AU review sits down with Icelandic artist Ásgeir Trausti to talk about his debut record “In The Silence” and his first trip to Australia for Splendour in the Grass – as well as a couple of sideshows with Airling.

We also talk about his now famous cover of Nirvana’s “Heart Shaped Box” and how he ended up doing one for Miley Cyrus’ “Wrecking Ball”! All this and more…
