Fjallabræður is an intriguing male chorus ensemble hailing from the town of Isafjörður, nestled in the picturesque Westfjords of Iceland. The group, which derives its name from the Icelandic words for "mountain brothers," has captured the hearts of audiences with their rich vocal harmonies and a repertoire that beautifully intertwines traditional Icelandic music with contemporary elements. The choir has become a cultural emblem of their region, known for their powerful and emotive performances that resonate deeply with the rugged landscapes of their homeland.

Over the years, Fjallabræður has cultivated a distinctive sound that reflects both their deep roots in Icelandic choral tradition and their innovative approach to modern music-making. This is evidenced in their recent releases such as "Það vex eitt blóm fyrir vestan," a song that paints an auditory image of the Icelandic west with its poignant lyrics and soaring melodies. "Hæ vinur minn" and "...og þess vegna erum við hér í kvöld" are further testaments to their ability to connect with listeners through themes of friendship, togetherness, and the sheer joy of song. The self-titled track "Fjallabræður" encapsulates their identity, celebrating the bond amongst the 'brothers' of the choir through music, while "Hosiló" showcases their playful and lighter side, adding a festive layer to their diverse musical canvas. The ensemble continues to inspire with their dedication to musical excellence and their passion for sharing the spirit of Iceland with the world.
