"Curious about the land of hot springs, volcanoes, Vikings and folklore? Perfectly juxtaposing old and new, Iceland’s sophisticated European culture based on age-old traditions, and its knack for mixing of ancient ways with new trends, makes it a must-see destination for any traveller. This spring, Toronto is ready for A Taste of Iceland in Toronto, as the festival returns to the city from Thursday, March 21 to Sunday, March 24. In addition, Icelandair recently announced year-round service from Toronto to Reykjavik, just a five-hour flight."
REYKJAVIK CALLING is a free concert presented by Canadian Music Week that takes place Saturday, March 23 at The Hoxton on Bathurst Street (doors open at 6:30pm) with Apparat Organ Quartet, Asgeir Trausti (joined by Cai.ro of Canada), and Soley (with Revelstoke of Canada).
The Icelandic Film Festival is another free event which will be held at the Cineplex Odeon Varsity Cinema on Bloor Street West on March 21.
Drake Hotel's Head Chef Darren Glew will host award winning Iceland Chef Hakon Mar Ovarsson for four days (beginning March 21) of authentic Icelandic delicacies and inspired cocktails. You can check out the tasty menu below. Drake Hotel will also showcase Icelandic Art from March 20 through March 25 as well as the Iceland Airwaves Showcase on March 22.
Detailed information provided by the festival can be found after the jump. You can also find the link to enter a contest to win a trip to Iceland.
Icelandic cuisine by Chef Hakon:
First course
Tapas-style tasting menu of “Harðfiskur,” Icelandic hard-(dried)-fish with Icelandic butter; grilled Icelandic langoustine shell with garlic, butter and herbs; Atlantic shrimps, pickled vegetables, citrus dressing, cress and lumpfish caviar; deep-fried crispy balls of cod and potatoes and “Söl” mayonnaise; and pickled herring, sweet rye bread, curry dressing, green apples and spring onions.
Second course
House-made, cold-smoked filet of naturally raised Icelandic salmon, served with grainy mustard dressing, sour cream, dill oil and Icelandic rye bread.
Main
Seared and slowly cooked filet of free-range Icelandic lamb, with glazed root vegetables, juniper berry-infused lamb jus reduction and a dust of dried, wild Icelandic herbs and blueberries.
Dessert
Skyr of the Vikings, a delicate mousse of Icelandic skyr (a cultured dairy product unique to Iceland, and a staple since the Vikings), with apple jelly and crispy oat-hazelnut crumble. It will be served with cinnamon-flavoured, poached rhubarb.
REYKJAVIK CALLING featured artists:
Apparat Organ Quartet
Iceland’s Apparat Organ Quartet is sometimes described as “machine rock and roll.” Their latest album, Pólýfónía, was greeted with rave reviews and was featured on many end-of-year lists, including “Album of the Year” by Fréttabladid, Iceland’s largest newspaper. After finding success in Europe, Apparat Organ Quartet signed to Head in the Sand Records and are releasing Pólýfónía in Canada. Every note on Pólýfónía is hand-played; there is not a sequencer or computer in sight.
Ásgeir Trausti
Singer-songwriter Ásgeir Trausti's debut album was released in Iceland with great critical acclaim. It only took it six weeks to reach gold sales, and less than three months to reach platinum. An English version of the album is in the making with lyrics written by American musician John Grant. Last November, the album received six nominations for the Icelandic Music Awards taking place this month: Best Album, Best Song (Leyndarmál), Best Male Vocalist, Best Songwriter, Best Producer and Best Lyricist. In December, the album received the Icelandic Kraumur Award, as well as a nomination for the 2012 Nordic Music Prize.
Cai.ro
Cai.ro has been on a steady rise in the Canadian indie music scene since the late 2011 release of their debut EP entitled Young Love. NOW Magazine called them a “must-see” in Toronto’s 2011 Indie Week round-up. Nate Daniels (vocals/guitar), Matt Sullivan (drums/percussion), Caitlin Grieve (strings/vocals), Dante Berardi Jr. (guitar/vocals) and Wooyoung Kim (bass) have an obvious affinity for haunting quiet and walls of sound. Their music – sometimes orchestral and sometimes minimal – can be characterized as strangely familiar while remaining unmistakably new.
Sóley
Since Sóley's first solo release, Theater Island EP, in 2010 and the follow-up album, We Sink, in 2011, she has built an international reputation and devoted fan base with her delicate melodies and beautifully dark lyrics. Formerly of the band Seabear, her solo album and EP scored top marks and rave reviews in Iceland’s biggest newspapers, plus nominations in the Icelandic Music Awards. Sóley has toured extensively in Europe and recently completely her first solo U.S. shows, opening for Icelandic superstars Of Monsters and Men for a series of sold-out shows down the East Coast.
Revelstoke
Towns are an abstract idea, in the same way that music is. The logician would argue that since a town is abstract and music is abstract then a town must be music. Revelstoke is a town in the British Columbian Rockies. The brainchild of Toronto-based multi-instrumentalist Andrew Seale, Revelstoke is a series of mini symphonies built using a 40-year-old mandolin from Ireland, a banjo and a guitar played with slides or violin bows or small hands. With a keen eye for storytelling and a delight for confusion, the experimental folk jams are sure to crawl through the ears and into the memory.

The Buffalo Bills were matched against the Seattle Seahawks playing in the Rogers Centre on Sunday, December 16, 2012, with a kick-off time of 4 pm. The Hyundai Halftime show featured PSY the South Korean phenom of "Gangnam Style" fame.
A Bud Light Pre-game Street Festival began at 11 am and ended at 3:30 pm on Blue Jays Way and John Street. Live music was provided by Everest and the R&B band Fathead and DJ Clymaxx spun some tunes on the main stage. NFL Interactive games brought lots of footballs into play and I picked up stuff like a big, blue foam hand, Hyundai sunglasses and Bud Light hand warmers and beer cozies.
