“Néfur's work is an invitation to listen deeper, feel more fully, and awaken to the world around us in a new way”

NÉFUR
SINGER, COMPOSER, PERFORMER, SOUND ARTIST & ASTROLOGER
Néfur listens, sings, records and makes music with glaciers and other sounds of nature.
Through the sounds of water and her voice, she builds myth and story.
Through her artistic universe she invites you to remember your kinship with bodies of water; to re-align with the cosmic and ancient rhythms of nature, and to rekindle your erotic pulse as your most powerful creative force.
Shortlisted for her field recording of Solheimajökull glacier lagoon on BBC Sound Awards 2021, she has given birth to an album composed only with sounds of Icelandic glaciers and her voice, which premiered as a performative concert at Spitalfields Music Festival in London and at Harpa Music Hall, Reykjavik. In 2026, she was nominated 'Performer of the Year' at the Icelandic Music Awards.
Néfur tours collaboratively across Europe with improvisation-based concerts with her field recordings and vocals. She composes for dance, theatre, performance, film and video-art. She has recently performed at festivals CTM (Berlin) and Sonar (Barcelona.
She also holds women's circles offering a practise that blends voice activation, somatics, glacier wisdom and astrology.
