Daði Freyr and his band Gagnamagnið should have won this year’s Eurovision Song Contest with Think About Things. Alas, the event was cancelled. But in March and April, it was one of the most popular songs on Carte Blanche Music, and things are looking good for May as well.

Meanwhile, Freyr doesn’t wait for things to happen. He makes things happen all by himself. His new single Where We Wanna Be continues the sound we’ve come to expect. It’s funk, it’s disco, it’s cool and it’s totally unique at the same time. Instantly recognizable, Daði Freyr & Gagnamagnið have taken off and are sure to fly way past the borders of their homeland. I bet they’ll be an established act by the time they represent Iceland at the Eurovision Song Contest 2021.
