about

Produced by Sigur Ros' Kjartan Sveinsson and Davíð Þór Jónsson, the follow up to 2007's Við og Við debut, Innundir skinni features contributions from Bjork, Skúli Sverrisson (Laurie Anderson, Lou Reed), Shahzad Ismaily (Tom Waits, Plastic Ono Band, Bonnie "Prince" Billy), María Huld Markan Sigfúsdóttir (Amiina) and Ragnar Kjartansson.

The album marks a departure by including three English sung songs, including single to be Surrender which also features Bjork's distinctive vocal. Arnald's lilting voice makes her songs come alive, leaving the impression of a classic troubadour with associations to early freak-folkers like Vashti Bunyan and Judee Sill.
