Meet Jonsi.


If you have yet to hear of this man Jonsi, I would suggest you go and do your research immediately. He is nothing short of amazing (and will be in Richmond this weekend!). He is known for his use of a cello bow on a guitar and his falsetto voice.... oh and he is also blind in his right eye.

Check out the trailer below for the documentary Jonsi - Go Quiet. The documentary as quoted by the director is a simple and easy concept. 

"its new year's day in reykjavik, and Jonsi awakens to a trashed house in the wake of his party, he avoids cleaning up and instead procrastinates by playing songs that reflect the night before, the bittersweetness of new year, and the melancholy of a year gone by".

He plays his entire new album acoustically through the documentary..... I love this stuff!
