Hello again, High Five (With A Secret Handshake!) & Elbow Club Members! We're back with your weekly roundup of all things Iceland, from us at the Reykjavík Grapevine to you, our loyal supporters.

First up is our Reykjavík Newscasts. In this edition (Si apre in una nuova finestra), editor-in-chief Valur Grettisson talks about the latest prospect of an underground volcano off the coast of Reykjanes, and in this edition (Si apre in una nuova finestra), we bring you the first day of “summer”, a new COVID order from the chief epidemiologist, racism in Iceland, and more.

In other news, police handling of a fugitive case sparks a conversation about racial profiling (Si apre in una nuova finestra); PLAY begins flying to and from the US (Si apre in una nuova finestra); Iceland’s favourite belugas get a new home (Si apre in una nuova finestra); the Finance Minister is under calls to resign (Si apre in una nuova finestra); the stolen statue (Si apre in una nuova finestra) saga continues; and more (Si apre in una nuova finestra)!

There’s some really great events (Si apre in una nuova finestra) coming up in town, but wherever you are, enjoy these hot new music tracks (Si apre in una nuova finestra) from Iceland.

Thanks once again for your continued support, and have a great weekend!
