Esquimaux Management (or Eskvímó) was an
Icelandic
independent record label created around
1981 by renowned composer
Hilmar Örn Hilmarsson and
Gunnar Ruðni Agnarsson, manager of
new wave band
Þeyr.
The company was in charge of the release of Þeyr’s records and books. Its owners performed with British bands in Iceland such as
Eyless in Gaza.
Esquimaux cease operations in 1983 with the breakup of Þeyr. In 2001 the name of the company appeared in Mjötviður til Fóta, Þeyr’s 20th anniversary album.
