Portrait

In a few words

There are 4 artists named Hera * Icelandic singer/songwriter * Polish free jazz band *Turkish alternative rock band *An online Prog Rock band based on discord HERA (Iceland) Icelandic singer/songwriter Hera has been living in New Zealand for about 10 years whilst cultivating and carving out a very successful career in her native land on the opposite side of the world. Not an easy task but one that was deservedly rewarded in 2002 when HERA was named Best Female Singer at that year’s Icelandic Music Awards, a major achievement for the young artist given that for the previous 10 years that category had been almost completely dominated by Bjork. Nominated in two categories a delighted HERA claimed the coveted Female Singer Award at the ceremony in Reykjavik on 23rd January 2003. 2002 had been a good year for the talented young lady. Just 18 years of age Hera’s song “Itchy Palms” was chosen as the title track in the Icelandic produced film “Hafio (The Sea)” and she performed the song live at the film’s premiere in September. “The Sea” went onto win 8 Edda Awards that year (the Icelandic film industry version of the Oscars) and has since been distributed in over 30 different countries. The music video with clips from the movie features on the DVD film release of “The Sea”. 2003 continued where the previous year had ended off with her song “Makebelieve” becoming the 3rd most played track on Icelandic National Radio, another major achievement as the station has a very strong and varied international play-list. “Makebelieve also became a finalist in the USA song writing competition that year.
