Jón Þór Birgisson
Jón Þór Birgisson or Jónsi (born April 23, 1975) is a guitar player and lead singer of the Icelandic post-rock band Sigur Rós. His trademark is the bowed guitar, that is, playing his electric guitar with a cello bow to create a high-feedback (previously used by Eddie Phillips and Jimmy Page), yet melodic sound.
