Barbari
We can safely say that Barbari is the best barbershop quartet in Iceland. Partly due to the fact that it is the only one. The chaps in Barbari take their role of ambassadors of harmony to Iceland very seriously. Having been active for over 10 years, they’ve explored a sizeable chunk of the Barbershop repertoire, and shared it with all who would hear it in Iceland!
This competition is their first time taking their barbershop singing to the international stage and they’re very excited to meet all of their fellow Nordic barbershopers.

Primer
Founded in 2021 by four members with the same goal: To get as good as we can and to one day compete among the best! After winning the European Championship in 2022, we were thrilled to try and take this to the next level and start aiming for the International stage! Some member reorganizations and some schedule incidents prevented us from going last year, but this year we are more ready than ever (which means a little more than last year), and excited to bring you a contest with some new material and some old goodies!

Zoinks
Mic warming for the men’s quartet semi finals last year, under the name of STONKS, this quartet saw themselves fit to try their hand at the real thing, and the judges’ scrutinous assesments. A wrench was thrown in the works, however, when the wife of the quartet’s baritone due date was set as the 3rd of May. Scrambling for alternatives, the quartet was saved in their hour of need by the great Bertil Donsted Engberg. Despite normally singing tenor, he carries his part in Zoinks with all the grace, charm and wit that a baritone needs to shine on stage.
Zoinks are coming to give a scary good show!

A Great Shoutfit
A Great Shoutfit is a celebrated quartet with its roots in folk music, before switching into more hardcore acappella. They have won several gold medals at the biennial Wiener Bängerknaben festival before switching into barbershop because it ”rings more than bängerknaben”; an acappella style that includes cow bells (also known as ”acowbella”). It’s their 4th time on the barbershop competition stage, and if they win they have promised to sing a rendition of Edelweiss with all the bells on.
