Boats, glasses and TV shows: Catching up with VÆB

Eurovision is one big family and this year, some Icelandic brothers have extended it even further.

Hálfdán and Matthías are VÆB, and they’ve found a brand-new pair of blinged out sunglasses just in time to make their way to Basel.

Michael and Io chat with the lads about their music, being the oldies at Songvakeppnin and if they’d ever consider being in a Eurovision and Alone Australia crossover series.

Which Eurovision singer would they want to have in their boat?

How many glasses do they have?

Why do the boys know all about funerals?

You can see VÆB perform Róa during Semi Final 1. Watch it on SBS:

  • Live on Wednesday 14 May at 5am AEST
  • Prime time on Friday 16 May at 7:30pm AEST

Not in Australia? Watch the video in full in the Spotify podcast.
