Event Description

Bridging the Brooklyn-Reykjavik jazz divide with European elegance and a fiery, New York drive... Sunna will be joined by bassist Jimmy Masters and drummer Scott McLemore.

The Washington Post described her music as possessing “such timeless virtues as lyricism and grace… elegantly bridges soul-searching passages with uncluttered swing.” On her latest CD, "Songs from Iceland" she confirms that assessment by re-imagining 5 Icelandic folk-songs for jazz quartet, adding new perspective to Time Out New York's statement that Gunnlaugs is “proof that jazz is as much a part of the picture as the pop of Björk or SigurRos.” Her next recording is scheduled for June in New York amidst US tour-dates
