25/6 - Mjús Sandur, The Faeroes On midsummers eve, we will be playing at Mjús together with 4 other Faeroese artists and Saybia from Denmark. Mjús is on the island Sandoy, where many vikings lived of old and excavations there tell us much about our forebearers - apparently they liked eating birds (you can see the bones in their garbage).

| 22/7 - G! Syðrugøta, The Faeroes G! festival is the senior festival with it's fourth year running, and these brilliant arrangers from Gøta have managed to make a three days festival on the beach in Gøta, offering the Faeroes artist a great place to perform and attracting huge foreign names. This year EUROPE!!!, the immortal rock band from Sweden, are booked for the G! Festival. By booking Europe G! has begun The Final Countdown to the greatest festival ever in the Faeroes. Also the very popular Nephew (DK) will play on the beach in Gøta. A small note: Some of the greatest Faeroese vikings lived In Gøta, and Floksmennirnir were lead from Gøta to their death on mount Valaknúkur - check it out in the song "The Edge" on Eric The Red. |
| 5/8 - Summarfestivalur Klakksvík, The Faeroes Tyr performed on the Summarfestival in Klaksvik togheter with Ken Hensley and several Faeroese legendary musicians. We are happy to be booked for the Summarfestival again this year along with such names as Shakin Stevens and Brian McFadden. A small note: Kári has a very good Shaky move, and it can be seen in the "Hail To The Hammer" video, a very short clip of Kári just before the second verse begins - check it out and have a good laugh. |
