Skakkamanage belt out OFC’s in their rehearsal space in 101

Amongst the many numerous personalities that inhabit the music scene in Reykjavik,
there’s a fella called Orn. Fond of an arm wrestle and an obvious penchant for Graceland
era Paul Simon, our boy plays in at least a couple of bands and I caught two in one afternoon.

First off he’s playing an acoustic guitar lead with Seabear then he tells me that I have to
come by and check out the band he plays bass with - Skakkamanage. Funny how things
come together as I’d been trying to track them down for the preceding few days. Go see
this band as they kill live. Shot and edited by Stuart Rogers.
