After a long career mainly marked by composing the soundtracks for Dario Argento’s movies such as Profondo Rosso, Suspiria, and Tenebrae, Claudio Simonetti and his band head to ATP Iceland to perform the most successful Goblin hits which made Italian progressive rock and horror movie soundtrack history.
Another undisputed master of Italian horror soundtracks, Fabio Frizzi is set to perform new compositions and celebrate his special partnership with the late ‘Godfather of Gore’, director Lucio Fulci. In addition, Fabio Frizzi will perform a live-score to horror masterpiece The Beyond, which celebrates 35 years since filming.
Playing “the hits and the ones that got away”, ATP favourites Dirty Three also head to Keflavík. We couldn’t agree more with Warren Ellis’ promise that, “on a good day, there's nothing quite like us on the stage”. Plus, This Heat founding members Charles Bullen and Charles Hayward will join together under the banner of This Is Not This Heat to perform new interpretations of their influential music. After several years spent whipping the world into a dabke-induced frenzy, legendary Syrian singer and Arabic icon Omar Souleyman joins ATP Iceland as a full-blown, phenomenon of international music. Suuns tour new album Hold/Still, and Growing bring their hypnotic, rhythmic drone from Brooklyn, NY all the way to Iceland. Showcasing the very best in Icelandic music, we host pop band Valdimar, rock group Kimono, and uncompromising hardcore outfit Muck. Younghusband return to ATP Iceland for a second year, whilst Fuck Button’s Andrew Hung, USA Out Of Vietnam, Mario Batkovic, JC Flowers, Grimm Grimm and ADSL Camels head to Iceland for the first time to premiere their new music.
