Björk Fronting Her ‘80s Disco-Punk Band at 17

by Tess Duncan

We can never get enough of the Queen of All Things Cray. You might think you’ve seen it all, but this gem is too good not to share. This 1982 footage stars a blushed up teenaged Björk flaunting her soprano voice and fun stage presence in one of her first bands ever. Electro-dance-punk group Tappi Tíkarrass has the Icelandic legend sportin’ a super cute dress and her signature high-energy performance. Plus there’s a pretty sick guitar solo around 1:35. Check out their live version of “Hrollur” below. Because the best kind of video is a quirky video.
