Interesting facts

• The Music Experiments were held at the end of May due to restrictions on gatherings in effect for Covid 19. With the 2020 Music Experiments dropped, there was a lot of anticipation for the Music Experiments this year. Many bands that signed up for 2020 waited patiently for the 2021 IME. Due to Covid19 and travel restrictions, the winning band, Ólafur Kram, could neither participate in a Stage Europe Network project nor play at other Icelandic music festivals.
