Sjonni's Friends are an Icelandic tribute band. The band formed in early 2011 when the Icelandic singer Sjonni Brink died days before he was to perform his entry "Aftur heim" in the Icelandic national final for the Eurovision Song Contest 2011. The band members were all friends of Sjonni Brink, and decided to form the band and perform his entry together as a tribute. In the end they won the national final and will represent the country in the song contest in Germany.

Gunnar Ólason from the band represented Iceland in the Eurovision Song Contest 2001 as part of the band Two Tricky.
