“The influential Bedroom Community label: a lightning rod at the juncture where the ambition of classical music meets the aesthetics of indie music.”—Pitchfork

In 2006, visionary Icelandic composer Valgeir Sigurðsson, acclaimed American composer Nico Muhly, and Australian electronic artist Ben Frost launched the arts collective and record label Bedroom Community. Later adding American neo-folk sensation Sam Amidon to the roster, the tight-knit group orbits around Greenhouse Studios—an inconspicuous building on the outskirts of Reykjavík, where they meet, collaborate, and record their own work, as well as lend their talents to projects by Damon Albarn, Björk, Bonnie “Prince” Billy, Sigur Rós, and many others.

For its 10th anniversary Whale Watching Tour, the collective brings its adventurous music to you. In true Bedroom Community fashion, all of the artists will contribute to each other’s music on stage, with the set flowing between Muhly’s intricate modern chamber music compositions, Sigurðsson’s precise electroacoustic pieces, Frost’s haunting soundscapes, and Amidon’s delightful future-folk songs. Nadia Sirota (viola), Una Sveinbjarnardóttir (violin), Borgar Magnason (double-bass), and Helgi Hrafn Jónsson (trombone and vocals) join them on stage, making for a unique gathering of important international players converging right here in Columbus.
