Svavar Knútur can be heard again in Salzgitter.

In 2026, Svavar will be accompanied by Icelandic musicians Kristín Lárusdóttir (cello), Jóhanna Ósk Valsdóttir (viola) and Íris Dögg Gísladóttir (violin).

Anyone who has experienced a performance by Svavar Knùtur will remember it for a long time. His performances are an emotional rollercoaster ride between being moved to tears and crying with laughter, captivating you and never letting go.

The Icelandic singer/songwriter and entertainer Svavar Knútur is a musician with countless facets. He manages to enchant and captivate every audience from the very first moment with ease and exuberant sympathy. He presents his songs in an incredibly touching way and tells the most absurd stories and jokes in between, spiced up with a good dose of black Icelandic humor.

Svavar likes to describe himself as a public health troubadour: "I think I might be the broccoli of singer songwriters, not the sexiest of the vegetables, but still veeeery good for you!"

The Icelander is what a perfect entertainer should be: a personality that is perceived as genuine and at the same time goes beyond his own life without appearing artificial. Svavar Knútur emphasizes existence as a normal person, but sheds a different light on it, offering different perspectives.
