Caroline Hjelt and Aino Jawo formed in 2009, making music that blends Hjelt's vocals with Jawo's soulful approach.
For their sound, 'I Love It' still frames them best. 'Girls Girls' and 'Light Me Up' show where they went after that.
They landed with 'I Love It' featuring Charli XCX, a song that sparked a copyright lawsuit in 2014 before being resolved. That track and others like 'Girls Girls' and 'Brightside' kept their electropop sound going through albums like 'This Is. Icona Pop.' Their noticeable energy on stage comes from that vocal dynamic between them.
Hjelt and Jawo started making music together in 2009. After 'I Love It,' they released albums including 'Icona Pop' and worked with artists like Tove Lo and Ellie Goulding. They've faced industry challenges along the way.
