Who is this singer?? This is a hyper-specific question but my wife & I are staying a night in a hotel in Fjarðabyggð & watching an episode of Af fingrum fram from 2002. This guy seems like he’s had an amazing career but can’t seem to find anything about him online. Anyone know who this is?

   This is Raggi Bjarna (Ragnar Bjarnason).

   He is one of Iceland’s legendary musicians!

   Sadly, died a few years back.

7. You already got your answer, but I’d also like to add:

   There are no scandals attached to him, he always seemed very wholesome and he was apparently exceptionally bad at remembering lyrics! Oh, and he also collabed once with a rapper:

8. He has this signature hand motion that is very popular and if you do it… everyone knows who you’re talking about.

9. Raggi Bjarna, a national treasure!

10. He is one of Icelands treasures. 🥰

11. We used to be neighbours when I was growing up, super friendly guy one of those guys who was always old, you know what I mean? Always dressed nicely. Just absolutely flawless carrier. Highly respected in Icelandic music.
    I remember his car the most. He owned the same Cadillac since the 70’
    Yea he had pretty cool life.
