Sunna Gunnlaugs, Things You Should Know
Welcome to Something Blue. I’m Hairy Larry and I’ve got the blues, for you.
Anna Gréta, Blue Streams
Anna Gréta, Nightjar in the Northern Sky
Now that’s what I’m talking about. That’s Anna Gréta singing “Blue Streams”
and the title track of her album, “Nightjar in the Northern Sky”. Kicking us off tonight we heard Sunna Gunnlaugs play “Things You Should Know”.
Something Blue is broadcast on KASU, 91.9 FM and streaming on the internet at kasu.org.

Ingri Bjarni – Tgenging
Ingi Bjarni, Falin laglína
Sunna Gunnlaugs, Momento
Anna Gréta, Waiting Never Ends
All right now, that’s Anna Gréta singing “Waiting Never Ends”. Before that we heard Ingi Bjarni play “Falin laglína” and Sunna Gunnlaugs did “Momento” from her album, “Distilled”. Sunna Gunnlaugs, an amazing jazz composer, is the musician who introduced me to jazz from Iceland.

I’m Hairy Larry, host of Something Blue. Tonight I’m featuring jazz from Iceland, a country with a population of 400,000 people. Northeast Arkansas also has 400,000 people and just like Northeast Arkansas has an outsized influence on blues, and other American roots music Iceland has an outsized influence on Contemporary Jazz. Thanks to All About Jazz for featuring the musicians we’re hearing tonight. I’ll post a link to their article on the Something Blue website at sbblues.com.
Ok now, from his album “Tgenging” here’s Ingi Bjarni playing “Já í dag” and “Kannski blús”. Get it?
Ingi Bjarni, Já í dag
Ingi Bjarni, Kannski blús
