On Saturday I’m holding a concert in Reykjavík to celebrate the release of my album.

Yesterday Anna Jóna closed.

The process of the project taught me a lot about myself. I’m still processing the whole thing and I might share more later.

Giving up is sometimes the best way to freedom.

I feel…

I started writing songs 30 years ago. But I was too afraid to share them with people.

Two years ago I completed an album. But I was too afraid to release it.

Today I released it.

I’m still afraid but I think the only way to get over the fear is to go through it.
