Icona Pop makes their grand return with their new single, "I Want You" in collaboration with Galantis, set to release on February 17th. This collaboration gives fans a first glimpse of the duo's upcoming projects for 2023, as they finish up their next album.
With “I Want You”, the duo returns to their electronic and alternative roots, with years of experience as performers and songwriters. “We are coming back to what we love,” Aino said. “It was the most quiet period we have had in over 10 years so it’s crazy to make a dance track. We felt the need to do something more up-tempo.”
As for the release of “I Want You”, the single is distributed by Ultra Records with worldwide rights, excluding Nordic countries. The song is available for pre-order and can be streamed on their streaming platforms. This highly anticipated return of Swedish duo Icona Pop and Galantis promises to be a very special celebration for music fans.
The Swedish duo Icona Pop have had a spectacular rise since the release of their debut long-player in 2013. “This Is… Icona Pop” was hailed by critics and the group has performed on stages as varied as “The Tonight Show” starring Jimmy Fallon.
Since then, the duo have played on stages around the world, from Ultra Music Festival to Mark Ronson’s Club Heartbreak, and collaborated with artists ranging from Avicii to The Chainsmokers, to SOFI TUKKER and VIZE. In 2020, the duo paid homage to clubs around the world with the irresistible “You’re Free”, in collaboration with legendary icon Ultra Naté, honoring their 1997 hit single. Get ready for a 2021 year filled with surprises!
