Heartfelt storytelling and an atmospheric healing sound. Debut album out now on vinyl and digital.
Jóhannes Stefán is an Icelandic folk singer-songwriter whose debut album Oak in the Snow arrived in 2025. Working alongside backup vocalist Guðrún Bjarnadóttir, the two form a vulnerable vocal duet — intimate, unguarded, and deeply felt.
Inspired by Tom Odell, Bob Dylan, and Iron & Wine.
"A vulnerable vocal duet — intimate, unguarded, deeply felt."
Press & Reviews
In a world obsessed with polish, Jóhannes Stefán has chosen presence. And it's devastatingly beautiful.
No TransmissionA folk ballad that bruises softly and lingers beautifully.
Illustrate MagazineA song that doesn't beg for attention, but rather sits in the corner and waits for you to join it. And when you do, it meets you with both arms open.
No TransmissionEight songs tracing the arc of standing firm through cold and darkness. From the title track's open-field resilience to the closing intimacy of All I Feel Is You, the album moves between fragility and warmth.
Recorded and produced in Iceland. Available on vinyl (33⅓ RPM) and all major digital platforms.
