Ok, I am gonna tell you a little bit about me. My name is Hafdis Huld and I grew up in a town called Kópavogur in Iceland. I formed a circus at the age of 10 and had a summer of sold out performances in a neighbours garage. When I was 15 me and lots of boys formed a group called Gusgus and with them I released two albums and travelled around the world. Yes, I think that covers the early years.
Then I moved to London and started writing music with lots of interesting people like Boo Hewerdine, Ewan Pearson, Pascal Gabriel and Jim Abiss. I also wrote some songs with FC Kahuna and travelled around with them promoting the album Machine says yes.....at that point I still didn't really get the english humour so watching 'I am Alan Partridge' on a tour bus night after night with some rock'n roll english boys was a bit + - for a glittery fairy princess.
Then I decided to go be all serious and go to music college. That was a great time and I learned a lot. So now I can proudly put the job title" Musician" behind my name in the Icelandic phone book. But I won't be doing that anytime soon because " Glittery Fairy Princess" sounds much more professional to me.

My first solo album Dirty paper cup was released in October 2006 by Redgrape records. Some serious people have said very nice things about it and given it lots of stars and flyes and stuff. And I made it with very talented people like Boo and Neill so I think you should listen to it.
Since last summer I have been playing live with my lovely little band. The live show includes a pink flying V ukulele, some fairy lights and a lot of glitter. So far we have supported people like Mika and Paolo Nutini and if dreams come true it's only a matter of time until we will be asked to support Dolly Parton the queen of Dollywood.

"IF I NEVER MEET YOU IN THIS LIFE, LET ME FEEL THE LACK. A GLANCE FROM YOUR EYES AND MY LIFE WILL BE YOURS. WHERE IS IT THAT WE WERE TOGETHER, WHO WERE YOU THAT I LIVED WITH, THE BROTHER, THE FRIEND. DARKNESS AND LIGHT, STRIFE AND LOVE, ARE THEY NOT THE WORKINGS OF ONE MIND, THE FEATURES OF THE SAME FACE. OH MY SOUL, LET ME BE IN YOU NOW, LOOK OUT FROM MY EYES, LOOK OUT AT THE THINGS YOU MADE, ALL THINGS SHINING..."
