| Description: | There are fewer locales more awe-inspiring than the frigid recesses of Iceland’s Western coast a calm, glacial landscape at the polar opposite of Jimmy LaValle’s sunny, bustling California. Mosfellsbaer, Iceland and its surrounding areas are host to one of the world’s most secluded and spotlighted meccas of creativity, few outsiders are invited in. LaValle, a classically-trained and prolific pianist and musician whose ambitious projects have involved San Diego’s seminal ambient piano-rock outfit Tristeza, noise punks The Locust, the beat-driven GoGoGo Airheart and the gloomy, brooding epic-core group, Black Heart Procession, is one of the lucky elite. |
