Olof Arnalds playing Prospect Park w/ Blonde Redhead ++ more pics from MHOW
photos by Ryan Muir
A lot of photographers were in the house at the beginning of the BrooklynVegan Northside show at Music Hall of Williamsburg on Friday (6/12). So not surprisingly I have this second set of pictures from the event (the first set was by Chris La Putt).
For Olof Arnalds, that Brooklyn show was her third in three days, and part of her second trip to NYC in two months.
If you still haven't seen her, there is now yet another chance. In just 8 days from this posting (I really hope she isn't flying back and forth to Iceland every single time), Olof will be back in NYC to open for Blonde Redhead at the free 'Celebrate Brooklyn' show they're playing at the Prospect Park Bandshell on June 26th. I'm sure it will be her biggest audience yet (I was at her South Street Seaport show, and the early afternoon audience was not big).

Really looking forward to see Olof in the Prospect Park. It'll be a great venue for her. I saw her open for Bjork and Sigur ros at the Nattura Concert in Reykjavik last summer and she killed it in front of a crowd in excess of 35,000.

This will be nice to check out - was going for Blonde Redhead anyway, this is some good icing on the cake. BTW, Iceland isn't all that far, the flight to/from NYC is just about the same length as from/to the West Coast.

BV are singlehandedly creating Olof Arnalds as an artist that anyone ought to pay attention to.
