Saturday Sessions: Junius Meyvant performs “Lay Your Head”

You may associate soul music with the American south – not a nation in the far north Atlantic. But that’s where singer-songwriter Junius Meyvant hails from. Born in a chain of islands off the coast of Iceland, he first earned acclaim in his homeland, winning awards for best newcomer and single of the year. That led to successful tours of Europe and the U.S., and a 2016 album. His most recent offering comes out in August: an EP titled Rearview Paradise. Source
