About Fred's Collection
“These selections have been helpful in a multitude of ways: from providing inspiration to helping fill in the gaps of my knowledge and learning about history and some of my favorite musicians—especially in their own voice. Plus: It’s fun to try to learn Icelandic! I find it soothing, hearing people speak this language in simple, demonstrative tones.” —Fred Armisen-
