Roadburn Festival, which will take place between the 09th & 12th of April in 2015, has announced that Ivar Bjørnson, guitarist of Enslaved, and Einar 'Kvitrafn' Selvik, drummer of Wardruna, will curate Friday, April 10th of the event; with both bands also planning special sets that honor the Norse gods.

Enslaved's own performance will be dubbed "House of the Northern Gods", featuring songs from the band's entire catalogue that embody the Norse gods, with accompanying visuals created by Romanian artist Costin Chioreanu.

Bjørnson commented:

To say that my dream as a kid was to one day curate the Roadburn Festival would perhaps be to take it a tad too far – but it isn’t that far from the truth. There’s some ridiculously big shoes to fill, but luckily negative pressure, idea draught and performance anxiety aren’t something I’m into. It is my favourite festival in one of my favourite parts of the world; so this is nothing short of one the biggest honours I’ve been given! It is a privilege to undertake this challenge in twosome with Einar; an artist I truly feel in tune with artistically and philosophically – now it is all about hard work and dedication to ensure that the audience and the festival itself is given a Friday to enjoy, experience and remember. I for one can’t wait!
