Icelandic atmospheric rock band Katla. have initially had no plans to perform live, but it seems that's not the case anymore. The band has signed to Doomstar Bookings for upcoming live appearances and their live lineup will be completed by Hörður Ólafsson on bass and Ingvar Sæmundsson on guitar, both ex-members of Momentum.

The band posted the following message on Facebook: "We, Katla. are very pleased to announce that we've started working with Doomstar Bookings for upcoming live appearances. As many of you might know, we had no intentions of playing live when we formed Katla., and therefore the band has been, and still is a duo consisting of Einar Thorberg Guðmundsson and Guðmundur Óli Pálmason, but for our live appearances we will be joined by our friends Hörður Ólafsson on bass and Ingvar Sæmundsson on guitar. Both Hörður and Ingvar come from the now sadly defunct Momentum, who released, in our opinion, some of the best metal albums Iceland has ever seen. As all of us are grown ass men with beards on our faces and family duties on our shoulders we do not foresee doing any big tours, but we are hoping we can play a few festivals for our, and hopefully your enjoyment."

No gigs have been announced yet, but we should be on the look-out soon, as they're also recording a new album.
