SCAM debuted their live show at Iceland Airwaves in fall 2025 and immediately got booked for Roskilde Festival, catapulting them to a cult status in the local Reykjavík scene. The multilayered, high intensity electro-pop project of Icelandic composers and music producers Herdís Stefánsdóttir (East of my Youth) and Salka Valsdóttir (Daughters of Reykjavík) started when classically trained musician and film composer Stefansdottir met Salka as she was performing her music at a small venue in Reykjavik. Inspired by the sound of Valsdóttir’s unique music production, the two began exchanging ideas as long-distance penpals, trading music ideas over email. This creative dialogue evolved over a few years ultimately forming SCAM.
Both Salka and Herdís share a deep love for the craft of music as well as more than a decade of experience in the field – which explains why SCAM feels like a highly established project despite it technically being brand new.
SCAM has in its first year gained enough traction to book shows across Europe and North America including by:Larm in Oslo, headline shows in London, Vancouver and New York as well as booking multiple shows in Denmark following their Roskilde Festival appearance. The band’s debut single Mentally Gone will be featured as the main soundtrack to Maison Margiela’s world wide campaign directed by Alex Prager in the fall of 2026.
In an era where electronic music often gravitates toward either club functionality or pop accessibility, SCAM occupy an intriguing middle ground. Their music is undeniably danceable, yet equally cinematic. It feels designed for headphones as much as festival stages, balancing experimentation with immediacy.
