FM Belfast - How To Make Friends

How To Make Friends by FM Belfast

FM Belfast's music can be described as a joyful electronic dance music interlaced with fun and good fortune. Inability  to stand still or sit accompanies them wherever they go. The band started out as a duo on Christmas 2005 when Arni R Hlodversson and Loa H Hjalmtysdottir made a song as a present for their friends. What was initially thought of as a studio concept became a live band in the summer of 2006 when Arni and Loa performed at an art opening in a cave in the Faeroe Islands. Later that year Arni Vilhjalmsson and Orvar Th. Smarason joined the band. In October 2006 they played their first full concert

at the Iceland Airwaves festival in Reykjavik.

The band released their debut album how to make friends in Iceland and have sold 5000 albums locally

"FM Belfast, also heralding the kind of sing-along euphoria and stage invasion MGMT would be proud of. All in all, an end of night moment that will

take a long time to be beaten."

-Clashmusic (Brian Murnin) after aldrei fór ég suður 2009
