Retro Stefson play Senseni at the Airwaves closing night party

Retro Stefson bust out their monster jam Senseni at NASA for the Iceland Airwaves
closing night party. The festival hosts a free Sunday night event featuring encore
performances by bands that lit up the event. Retro Stefson’s show at Tunglið on the
festival’s opening night as part of the Kimi Records showcase was for mine one of the
top 3 Airwaves shows I’ve seen in the four years I’ve been covering the festival.

Retro Stefson cover Hjaltalín’s cover of Páll Óskar

Retro Stefson complete a trilogy of covers for the Iceland Airwaves podcast with their
reworking of Hjaltalín’s cover of Páll Óskar’s Þú komst við hjartað í mér (You touched
my heart). During Airwaves 2007, Sprengjuhöllin covered Retro Stefson’s Medallion
while Hjaltalín mustered up a version of Sprengjuhöllin’s Verum í sambandi sans lead
singer. Look out Páll Óskar, you’re next!
