Au\u00f0unn L\u00fathersson\u00a0also known as\u00a0Au\u00f0ur<\/strong> (pronounced: Author) isn\u2019t so much a newcomer to the Icelandic music scene. In fact, he has already released is debut EP \u2018Alone\u2019 back in February to roaring acclaim. Today he\u2019s back with the amazing video and track for \u201cI\u2019d Love\u201d and we couldn\u2019t pass the opportunity to showcase the brilliance he\u2019s pouring into our earholes along with a massively interesting video. He self-directed the video, drawing inspiration from Birdman and Christopher Nolan, the one-shot video takes place in a lightly lit hotel room as Au\u00f0ur sings, dances and tastefully shows off his crazy good spanish guitar playing skills.<\/p>\n
