Releasenotes:
Sk·li Sverrisson's long awaited solo album, Serφa, was released in 2006 by 12
T≤nar. It is a timeless classic, always fresh, always new.
Throughout the years Sk·li has enjoyed a long and distinguised musical
partnership with Laurie Anderson, but he has also teamed up with a number of
other artists, such as Sakamoto, Blonde Readhead, Jim Black, Anthony Burr,
Kitchen Motors etc.
Serφa was two years in the making and it is his second solo album. It's a
stunning work, a record containing thirteen songs written by Sk·li - almost
assured to capture the listener's mind for a magnificent sonic journey.
Many exceptional musicians accompany Sk·li on this voyage; long time friends
such as Amadeo Pace (Blonde Redhead), Anthony Burr, Eyvind Kang, Peter Scherer,
Ted Reichmann, Hildur Ingveldard≤ttir Gu≡nad≤ttir, J≤hann J≤hannsson, Hilmar
Jensson and ╙l÷f Arnalds who sings three songs to her own lyrics. Laurie
Anderson makes a special guest appearance on the album but Sk·li has worked as
her musical director for many years.
The album was recorded in Reykjavik and New York. Recording engineers along
with Sk·li were Anthony Burr, Orri J≤nsson (Slowblow) and Gunnar Tynes (m·m).
At the Icelandic Music Awards in 2006 Serφa was chosen as Best Independent Album
and was chosen the Album of the Year by Iceland's dominant newspaper, Morgunbladid.
