Hailing from the land of ice and snow, DIMMA is a musical entity whose sound reflects the atmosphere of the long dark winters of Iceland; Hard and heavy, yet chillingly refreshing in all it´s melancholic glory.

Founded in 2004 by guitarist Ingo Geirdal and bassist Silli Geirdal, Dimma quickly gained national attention for their explosive live shows and hook-laden songs found on their self-produced debut album Dimma. Released in October 2005, the album gave the band their first national radio hit "Big Bad Mama" and landed Dimma a supporting slot for Alice Cooper.

The follow up album Stigmata (released in June of 2008) gave the band two more national radio hits with ”Dimmey” and “Mama“ and featured a guest appearance by original Alice Cooper bassist Dennis Dunaway.

In the spring of 2011, Dimma began a new and exciting phase of their career as energetic lead singer Stefan Jakobsson and powerhouse drummer Birgir Jonsson joined forces with brothers Silli and Ingo Geirdal to take Dimma to new heights, both musically as well as visually on stage. A limited edition promo EP titled Dogma (2011) featured new live recordings of concert favourites from the first two albums and gave an insight into what was soon too come with "Þungur Kross", the bands first single that was sung entirely in Icelandic.

The sincerity of their lyrics, combined with their distinctive heavy sound, hit a nerve with Icelandic rock fans and inspired Dimma to write their next album in their native language.

The band spent the majority of the next year writing, rehearsing and recording new material and trying it out at concerts and festivals before finally confining themselves to the studio to complete their next opus. A concept album dealing with the darker sides of life, Myrkraverk (released November 2012) reached #3 on the national best selling albums list and included 3 radio chart singles; "Þungur Kross", "Myrkraverk" and "Sólmyrkvi".

This was followed by a double live album Myrkraverk í Hörpu on CD/DVD which was recorded and released in 2013.

During the early cold winter months of 2014, the band members returned to the studio to write, rehearse and record their fourth studio album. Released in June 2014, Vélráð is Dimma´s most critically acclaimed album to date. It went straight to #1 as the best selling album in Iceland and produced 2 more radio hits for the band with "Ljósbrá" and "Ég Brenn".

To support the album, the band played some of their biggest and best shows ever resulting in another double live CD/DVD package Guði Gleymdir which also topped the national album charts.

As did their collaborative albums with Icelandic punk/rock icon Bubbi Morthens as well as SinfoniaNord, where Dimma played some of their most epic songs with the support of a 70-piece orchestra and choir. These live albums helped Dimma win the national People´s Choice Awards in 2016 for best live performance.
