About Jónsi & Alex
Jónsi & Alex have been making music together since 2003 when they first met in Boston, USA. Things ramped up in 2005 when Alex moved to ReykjavÃk, Iceland, and the pair started to create the visual art that would form the basis of their limited edition hardback book, ‘Riceboy Sleeps’ in 2006. They continued to make music at home in the periods between Jónsi’s touring and studio commitments with Sigur Rós, slowly building the substantial body of work that now forms the album Riceboy Sleeps.
The pair have exhibited their artwork, videos and installations at exhibitions in Iceland, USA, UK, Belgium, Spain and Australia. They are also certified raw food chefs and have the dinky diplomas to prove it.
