Of Monsters and Men (OMAM) rose from Reykjavík to the global stage with their 2011 debut My Head Is An Animal, transforming from Icelandic indie favorites into international chart-toppers. Its breakout single, “Little Talks,” became a generational anthem with over a billion Spotify streams, leading to a Saturday Night Live debut in 2013. Their follow-up, Beneath The Skin (2015), debuted Top 3 on the Billboard 200 and included a surprise cameo on HBO’s Game of Thrones. With their cinematic sound featured in The Hunger Games, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, and more, plus commanding festival sets at Coachella, Glastonbury, and Lollapalooza, OMAM built a reputation as one of the most compelling live acts of their era. They continued to expand their story with Fever Dream (2019) and the intimate pandemic-era documentary tíu (2022), which premiered at Tribeca and won Best Short at Dumbo, paired with an EP of unreleased songs spanning a decade. After a brief hiatus to explore solo projects, the band now reunites with All Is Love and Pain in the Mouse Parade, arriving October 17, 2025.
