  • Kristín Anna Valtýsdóttire (aka Kría Brekkan) is an Icelandic vocalist and classically-trained multi-instrumentalist. She is best-known as a former frontperson of múm, and later on for collaborating with her husband David Portner as Avey Tare & Kría Brekkan. In late 2006, Valtýsdóttir acknowledged that she had not been a part of múm since the beginning of that year, and she published an open letter briefly describing her thoughts on the matter. In the letter she explains that this delayed announcement was preceded by several failed attempts that ended "filling many pages of reasons and emotions. " Valtýsdóttir is also a member of Storsveit Nix Noltes, and has recorded and played live with Slowblow. She appeared on records by Mice Parade and on Animal Collective's Feels (on which she is credited as "Doctess"). Valtýsdóttir recorded, mixed and engineered the Black Habit LP by Rings (featuring ex-members of First Nation). She also appears on the cover of Belle and Sebastian's 2000 Fold Your Hands Child, You Walk Like a Peasant LP with her twin sister, Gyða. In 2006 she did a Take-Away Show video session shot by Vincent Moon. She currently lives with Portner in the China-town section of New York .
