Off the back of their acclaimed 2023 album, ÁTTA, Sigur Rós is embarking on a brand new US tour this fall. For their return trip to the Auditorium Theatre, the Icelandic post-rock band will be joined by the Wordless Music Orchestra, a 41-piece orchestra from New York City.
Sigur Rós is known for their ethereal sound, frontman Jón Þór “Jónsi” Birgisson’s falsetto vocals, and their use of bowed guitar. Sigur Rós incorporate classical and minimal aesthetic elements. Jónsi’s vocals are sung in Icelandic and non-linguistic vocalisations the band terms Vonlenska. They have released eight studio albums, and attracted critical and commercial attention with their second album Ágætis byrjun.
