Dance masters Gusgus hit the Button Factory

Dublin People 12 Jan 2019
Gusgus are at the Button Factory on February 26.

GUSGUS are one of the most sought after and longstanding electronic acts from Iceland.

Armed with a legendary, must-see live show that encompasses all the elements that they are known for, on stage Gusgus extend their tracks and warp their soundscapes in a way that is unique to each performance.

World-renowned for their genre-defying style, an eclectic infusion of modern club culture and echoes of the past, they have remixed legendary acts such as Depeche Mode, Björk and Sigur Rós.

They have consistently found increasing relevance within an ever-changing electronic music scene, carving their own fortune and sound that is further exemplified by the release of 'Lies Are More Flexible.'

Being a quirky, several-member co-ed music group from Reykjavik, GusGus were nearly bound to inspire evaluations towards the Sugarcubes through a mid-’90s arrival.

Formed in early 1995 by filmmakers Stefán Árni Þorgeirsson and Sigurður Kjartansson, that same summer the group expanded to add musicians such as DJ Magnús and Daniel Ágúst Haraldsson.

Catch the full line-up at the Button Factory on  February 26.
