Sigur Ros interview

This morning I had the great pleasure of interviewing Georg (pronounced Ge-or-ch, with a hard 'G' as in 'glen' and a hard 'ch' as in 'loch') Holm, the bassist with and a founding members of Iceland's Sigur Rós (pronounced 'Si-er Rose', and meaning 'Victory Rose'), who are touring Australia next month. We only had 15 minutes to talk, but from my point of view the interview went very well, and covered such diverse topics as songwriting, Hopelandish, the perils of touring, and catching trout with your teeth. I'll put it to air on Thursday 6th April, the week before the band play The Palais in St Kilda.
