Icelandic prog rock band, active in the brief period of 1972 - 1973.

Svanfríður was founded in early 1972 by singer Pétur Wigelund Kristjánsson, bass player Gunnar Hermannsson, guitarist Birgir Hrafnsson and drummer Sigurður Karlsson. The last two came from the band Ævintýri, which had gained great popularity some time before. After non-stop playing, they went to London, late summer 1972, to record an album. The album was made in record time (about forty studio hours) and was recorded by Roger Wilkinson, it was released in the fall and was named "What's Hidden There?".
