Like many Icelandic artists before her, BJORK spent much of her teenage years singing as part of the renowned Hamrahlid Choir.
Things have now come full circle, as the experimental artist has contributed to the choir’s upcoming album, Come and Be Joyful.
This completely reworked a cappella rendition was actually first premiered live by the choir during BJORK’s mesmerizing “Cornucopia Tour” in 2019, but hasn’t been released to the public until today.
“She has also encouraged and commissioned dozens of choir music from all of icelands most prominant composers for half a century or so.”
Come and Be Joyful, which also features a BJORK-assisted reimagining of Biophilia cut “Cosmogony”, is out December 4th via longtime label One Little Independent Records.
