Bellatrix - Kolrassa Krókríðandi

About Me

Formed in 1992 by four 16 year old girls from Keflavík Iceland , Kolrassa Krókrídandi quickly became a household name in Iceland.
They won the battle of the bands in 1992 and signed a record deal with Smekkleysa / Bad Taste( the Sugercubes owned label).
Three albums followed to critical acclaim in Iceland and Kolrassa became known for their original icelandic sound and feisty performances .
In 1998 they decided to take on the world and revamped their sound and changed their name to Bellatrix. They released the album G with Global Warming Records and quickly built a strong fan base in the UK and Skandinavia.Bellatrix toured extensively around Europe and did a tour with Coldplay as well as co-headlining the Carling stage at the Reading and Leeds festival in 2000. They became the darlings of the indie press in Britain and signed to the legendary label Fierce Panda by founder Simon Williams in 1999 and released three singles and their final album to date: Its All True in 2000.
Today the girls and boy of Bellatrix are working on various musical projects . Elíza has just released her first solo album called Empire Fall on Lavaland Records. She has also studied Opera singing and released an album with the band Skandinavia. Sigrún has been playing keyboards with the band Dýrðin . Ester Bíbí plays bass with the band Singapore Sling and works as a sound engineer. Anna Magga plays guitar with the band Miss Daisy and Vaginas. Kidda plays bass and guitar with Kristín Eysteins , and Kalli plays drums with the band Bob Volume .
