Airwaves is not your typical music festival, so why not starting the day off at one of the 25 wonders of the world? The [**Blue Lagoon**](http://www.bluelagoon.com/?ref=glamglare.com) is a natural pool fed by hot springs with healing powers. A couple of hours of relaxation time, because we were up for a fantastic line up in the evening.

At **Gamla Bíó**, a beautiful event space, [**CeaseTone**](http://www.ceasetone.com/?ref=glamglare.com) opened the night. The band around singer/guitarist Haffstein Þráinsson does catchy dream rock soundscapes.

Next up on the same stage was [**Dream Wife**](https://glamglare.com/artist/dream-wife?ref=glamglare.com), a U.K./Icelandic three-piece. While name and lineup suggests some sort of semi-serious punk outfit, the three women (plus drummer) are up to something else: the fierce guitar-driven indie rock would be exciting even without their outstanding singer Rakel Mjöll, who is blessed with the ability to charm an entire room of people with a single smile.

After that we were heading over to **Harpa** which runs shows in four venues. This time it was packed with festival attendants and felt finally more rock’n’roll than classical music. At **Silfurberg** Icelandian band [**Singapore Sling**](https://www.facebook.com/Singapore-Sling-34742149719/) was on. The six to seven piece band plays intense, loud alternative rock. Extra points for the backdrop: during the show a sculpture of a bull’s head grew invisibly from a tiny spot to a menacing monster.

The next band, [**Fufanu**](http://www.fufanu.net/?ref=glamglare.com), topped Elke’s must see list, so the excitement was big when singer Kaktus Einarsson and guitarist Guðlaugur Einarsson took the stage backed by a bassist and a drummer. Kaktus made it official (after Dream Wife has proven it earlier that day): a dedicated singer rocks. His bad boy rock show fit perfectly to Fufanu’s dark alt rock and drove the crowd close to insanity.

And there was no winding down from here: Californian duo [**Go Dark’s**](http://gogogodark.com/?ref=glamglare.com) heavy electronic beats left a packed **Gaukurínn** breathless. They brought life-sized neon colored figures to the stage for a weirded-out future hippie vibe.

And this was Day 2 in a nutshell.
