Ólöf Arnalds to release new 7" in time for short US tour

Icelandic artist Ólöf Arnalds will be releasing her US debut in the form of a new 7" featuring two cover tracks. The a-side is "Maria Bethânia" by Brazilian singer Caetano Veloso and the flip features her take on countrymate Elly Vilhálms' "Sveitin milli sanda". I don't have an exact release date, but it's expected to be out in time for her upcoming tour:
