A Dawning, the deeply moving collaborative album from Icelandic composer, producer and multi-instrumentalist Ólafur Arnalds and the late Irish singer-songwriter Talos (Eoin French), arrives 11 July 2025 on CD. Blending the two artists’ unique musical voices, it moves between moments of raw emotion and luminous hope, inviting listeners on a powerful sonic journey. With its eight evocative tracks, A Dawning stands as both a celebration of artistic partnership and a heartfelt tribute to Talos’s enduring legacy. All artwork was created by Talos himself, offering a personal window into his creative vision. This is music to keep us afloat in dark waters, guiding us towards a glimmer of light on the horizon.
