Sigur Rós is an alternative rock band that was formed in 1982 in Glasgow, Scotland. The band has undergone several lineup changes throughout the years, with Bobby Gillespie on vocals since 1984 and Andrew Innes on guitar since 1986. Other current members include Darrin Mooney on drums and Simone Butler on bass.

Over the years, Sigur Rós has had various former members who have contributed to their unique sound. These include Jim Beattie and Robert 'Throb' Young on guitar, Judith Boyle on vocals, Martin St. John on tambourine, Thomas McGurk and Gavin Skinner on drums, Henry Olsen and Gary 'Mani' Mounfield on bass, Paul Harte and Stuart May on guitar, Philip 'Toby' Tomanov and Steve Sidelnyk on drums.

The band's music has been described as atmospheric and ethereal, often incorporating elements of post-rock and shoegaze. Their sound is characterized by lead singer Bobby Gillespie's distinct vocal style and the band's ability to create immersive sonic landscapes.

Late last year Sigur Ros producer and frequent collaborator Alex Somers hooked up with the band once again to deliver original music for Hang The DJ, one of the flagship episodes of the most recent Black Mirror series. Now his acclaimed score for the Netflix programme, as well as two new songs made in collaboration with Sigur Ros for the programme, is released on CD and vinyl by Invada Records. Somers composed the Black Mirror episode on the back of recent scores for the silent movie archive epic Dawson City: Frozen Time and Viggo Mortensen vehicle Captain Fantastic, both of which have drawn wide praise. He also collaborated with Sigur Ros mainman and partner Jonsi on the music for the US TV atomic bomb drama Manhattan. Previously, in their Jonsi and Alex guise, the pair made the much-loved ambient masterpiece Riceboy Sleeps in 2009, with Somers going on to co-produce Sigur Rós’s 2012 and 2013 albums Valtari and Kveikur.
