Biography

Of Monsters and Men is a seven-piece indie folk/indie pop band from Iceland, formed in 2010. The members are co-singer/guitarist Nanna Bryndís Hilmarsdóttir, co-singer/guitarist Ragnar "Raggi" Þórhallsson, guitarist Brynjar Leifsson, drummer Arnar Rósenkranz Hilmarsson, piano/accordion player Árni Guðjónsson, bassist Kristján Páll Kristjánsson, and trumpeter Ragnhildur Gunnarsdóttir, who joined in the 2012 tour. The band first got noticed when they won the Músíktilraunir in 2010, an annual battle of the bands competition in Iceland. The band's debut album My Head Is an Animal (2011), peaked at No. 6 on the US Billboard 200 album chart and also reached European charts. Their lead single "Little Talks" was a commercial success, reaching the Top 20 in over five countries and No. 1 on US Alternative Songs. Their musical style has been frequently compared to indie groups like Arcade Fire, Mumford & Sons, and Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros.
