Frída Pállsdóttir and her band Lionheart were lucky enough to be on the cover of the August issue of Monitor Magazine. Inside there were a number of photographs of everyone looking well styled and there was even some great insight into what life is like as part of the Lionheart clan, please enjoy this small snippit!

It's been noticed that a lot of fans sing-a-long to your music when they're attending a Lionheart concert, do you love that? "It's a lot of fun! I always love seeing people sing-a-long to the songs that we are playing. It's especially fun when we play in areas that a lot of people don't speak English, but that doesn't discourage them from moving their lips and singing with us. It's actually quite magical to see everyone singing with us and waving their arms back and forth as we play. There's nothing else like it in the world."

I know that your record label is here in America and that's the main reason that you moved out here, do you regret that decision or would you much rather live in Iceland? "That's a tough one! We love it here in America and the fact that our fan base is growing here is mind blowing and we all still have a hard time believing, but we love it in America. We still find the time to go back and visit our families in Iceland, so it really feels like we have the best of both world."

Was there ever a moment when you thought to yourself "this has gotten pretty big"? "You know, I don't think so! It's still extremely surreal to me and I know for the guys as well. I don't even consider myself to be that 'famous', but I suppose that once you accomplish putting your name out in America, you have made it pretty big!"

Your final show in Boston was on September 14th where you will play a show that's put on by the radio station where the Backstreet Boys and Gavin Degraw will be opening for you, how was that? "It was incredible. We're a huge fan of One Tree Hill and it's so nice to be able to interact and get to know such amazing artists that we've only but looked up to while we were putting out own dreams and aspirations in motion."
