JFDR – “Shimmer”
The Icelandic musician Jófríður Ákadóttir is releasing her second album as JFDR, New Dreams, in a couple months. We’ve heard two songs from it so far — the title track and “Taking A Part Of Me” — and today she’s sharing another one, the appropriately titled “Shimmer.” It’s tranquil and atmospheric, Ákadóttir’s voice tentative as she searches for comprehension: “The strings we’ve tied, we don’t understand/ We’ve tried and we’ve failed at it/ Again and again,” she sings. Listen to it below.
New Dreams is out 3/13 via White Sun Recording. Pre-order it here.
