Erna Omarsdottir

Erna Omarsdottir performance

Thanks to my friend Bjarni, who told me to 'just check out a performance at Boston bar before I leave', I saw one of the most amazing pieces of modern dance in my life. A woman crawling on the tables, sweating on top of the bar with a cloth over her head, shaking in the windows, falling on the floor, screaming, crying - Erna Omarsdottir, a world class artist, was dancing amongst the crowd in this tiny bar in Reykjavik. She's collaborating with Björk, Portishead and others, not surprisingly at all. www.ernaomarsdottir.com

Afterwards she made a songnumber which I recorded. It's really crappy and you can't see her, but wanted you to hear it a little bit anyway;
