This week kicked off with truly Garfield vibes in GV HQ Studios, with your dear hosts Rex and Jói just needing naps and lasagna. Our spirits were immensely lifted by our guests, Allie Doersch and Árni Þór Árnason of longstanding punk band Tófa.

Tófa has been around the Reykjavík music scene since their debut album Fleetwood Max in 2015. Ferocious and poetic, Tófa consists of singer Allie Doersch, bassist Andri Freyr Þorgeirsson, guitarist Árni Þór Árnason, and drummer Jóhannes Ólafsson. With two albums under their belt, Tófa is set to release their third LP, Mauled, on July 25.
