Sigur Rós’ Jónsi Working With OneRepublic’s Ryan Tedder

Sigur Rós singer Jónsi is reportedly working with OneRepublic frontman and songwriter Ryan Tedder on new music. In an interview with CoS, Tedder recounts a recent trip to Iceland and says that Jónsi “wants to get into writing pop music.” “I have a couple of songs from him in an email that I’m gonna try and make into pop records,” he said. As a songwriter, Tedder is best known for penning songs for Beyoncé and Taylor Swift, as well as his work on U2’s most recent album Songs of Innocence. The latest OneRepublic record, Oh My My, notably features the xx’s Romy Madley Croft on the song “Fingertips.” Sigur Rós are currently in the midst of a world tour, during which the band has been debuting new material.
