We talked to Nanna (hiinanna) from monstersandmen about her new solo album, 'How to Start a Garden' and the puppy that got her through the pandemic.
cartoonist Charles M. Schulz once posited. And no one, not even John Wick, could agree more heartily with this sentimental adage than Icelandic folk-rocker Nanna Bryndis Hilmarsdottir, who acquired exactly that three years ago at the beginning of lockdown: A warm, but underweight Labrador puppy that, as the runt of her litter, nobody seemed to want.
And a warm, growing puppy can certainly come in handy on long winter nights in Iceland. Nanna maintains two residences— a basic apartment in Reykjavik and a conversely rustic cabin in the wilderness—and Vofa accompanies her everywhere, safely leashed in the city but happily off leash in the scenic countryside. And, just like similarly-isolated folks all over the Covid-constricted world, she bonded—bonded—with her new pandemic pooch.
: Yeah! I think she’s like—for this record that I’m about to release, it’s so much about trying to, I guess, find your roots. And trying to learn how to stay still or something like that? Like needing it, and the process of learning it. And when I got her, she was just a part of that whole process for me. And she comes into the songs.
: And ‘countryside’ in Iceland could include anything, from glaciers to geysers to fjords and hot springs. Topographically, it’s a pretty varied landscape.: Yeah, that’s true! The day that I got Vofa, that’s the crazy thing. There was a volcano that had just erupted, right outside the city. So I walked up to the volcano and watched it, and then I went to pick her up as a tiny puppy. So it’s very dramatic, in that way, in that sense.: Yeah. I think so.
