Interviews
Kælan Mikla don’t see themselves as a band that created a world. They see themselves as people who were invited into one. At Ankea Festival 2026, we sat down with the Icelandic trio to talk about the long-awaited new album, stepping away from constant touring, their shared creative “hive mind”, and why Kælan Mikla has always felt like an ever-expanding universe rather than simply a band.
