Hildur Vala – Picnic Concerts

Hildur Vala first attracted attention of the Icelandic audience when she won the Idol competition in 2005. Since then, she has released three solo albums. The newest one is called Geimvísindi (eng. Astronomy) and has been praised by critics, and this is the first album consisting of only her own material. Hildur Vala has a beautiful voice, and her songs are both pleasant and spiced with poetic lyrics.
