In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. It is a mystical panflute theme from a tv series in the mid 80's. I cannot remember the name or which film or show it was, but left a deep impression on me. It had something to do with a native american looking boy and animals. Who knows it?
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Hilmar Orn Hilmarsson, Steindór Andersen, Stafnbúi I will never get tired of listening to these Icelandic rímur songs by these two legendary carriers of Icelandic folklore and musical tradition. The album breathes the landscapes of Iceland and I feel immediatly transported back there. Love!
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Blodbylgje (feat. Gaahls Wyrd)” Blodbylgje ft. Gaahl, will always be a special song to me, as it was the first recorded track with Gaahl together. Hearing the result of how our voices blend together and how well we intuitively collaborated together was exactly how I envisioned it.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Among many memorable times, performing with my song SUURIN for Ubisoft, to announce their Assassin's Creed Valhalla was a highlight. My music and their videos came together perfectly during our live performance; the teamwork between all was great.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? To make many more beautiful songs together with old and new friends and professional colleagues, and perhaps write a book someday on all these great adventures and lessons
Kati Rán has also released music as a member of Castlefest Collective.
