KALEO - Vor in Vaglaskógur
On Saturday, July 26th, a unique music extravaganza will take place featuring KALEO and their specially selected guests. As many remember, their first hit was a unique version of the well-known Icelandic song Vor í Vaglaskógur. It is, therefore, fitting that the event takes place in the wonderful surroundings of Vaglaskógur forest.
KALEO
Icelandic heritage in blues rock style
KALEO is a household name in Iceland, with a devoted following around the world. The band was formed in 2012 in Mosfellsbær and rose to global prominence with its raw, emotional blues rock sound.

With hits like "Way Down We Go" and "No Good," the band has become one of Iceland’s most internationally recognized musical acts, celebrated for its powerful live performances and a sound that fuses Icelandic atmosphere with American blues roots.
