Hljóðverssmiðjur á Flateyri

24.06.09

Tankurinn var reistur árið 1925 til geymslu á lýsi en var breytt í atvinnuhúsnæði árið 1980. Ýmis starfsemi hefur verið í Tankinum síðan þá, m.a. bátasmiðja, trésmíðaverkstæði og nú síðast beitningaraðstaða. Eftir miklar endurbætur var aðstaðan orðin boðleg til að taka upp tónlist. Múgsefjun var fyrsta hljómsveitin til að taka upp í Tankinum vorið 2007, en breiðskífa þeirra ‘Skiptar skoðanir’ er að fullu tekin upp í hljóðverinu. Síðan hafa ýmsir listamenn tekið upp í Tankinum og franska hljómsveitin Klezmer Chaos tók þar upp um páskana.
