Breaking news: Sadly, due to illness, Icelandic sweethearts Amiina have cancelled their US tour and will not be playing the Sept. 4th show as scheduled.
However,The buzz behind their album "Kurr" is deafening and the fact that they just came back from touring with Sigur Ros not only as their string section BUT also their opening band should make you hope that they will make their way back.
To soften the blow we are doing a
special
Iceland/DC love giveaway.
with some Amiina CDs and maybe some other undisclosed goods to win.
And this is what you need to do:
As inspired by these icelandic tourism postcards
(see samples below)
make your very own DC tourism postcard and post them as a comment / send it our way to info@brightestyoungthings.com by the end of this week.
Easy. Peasy.
And remember:
this is not about your graphic skills but about:
DC love/hate
senses of humor
and
remembering that the Google and Flickr image searches are your friend
