Biografía de Icona Pop

Electro duo Icona Pop hail from Stockholm, Sweden, blending an eclectic mix of punk, indie pop and electro house to create their unique sound.

Caroline Hjelt and Aino Jawo, both students at a music school in Stockholm, met at a party in 2009, deciding to collaborate musically, four weeks later performing for their first time together. Icona Pop had their first success with their single, "Manners" which had an effortlessly cool charm, brought to a wider audience after being sampled by Hip Hop act Chiddy Bang in 2011 in their song "Mind Your Manners."

Following a number of festival appearances in Europe, Icona Pop released their self titled debut album in Sweden in 2012, with the single, "I Love It," featured on a number of soundtracks and adverts. It became a hit and led to the duo performing on a number of TV shows, including "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon" and "Good Morning America." Their EP, "Iconic" was released in the US shortly after and reached number 21 on the US Itunes Dance Chart.

Their internationally released album, "This Is… Icona Pop," came out in 2013 to wide critical acclaim. For the album, they wanted to display their musical diversity, melding a diverse number of influences to create the album, proving that they are not just a one hit wonder after the success of "I Love It." It is predominantly synth-pop yet with the energy of punk but it also moves to electro reggae with the track "Light Me Up" making for a diverse, exciting listen.

Their talents have been rewarded with two Teen Choice awards, for Choice Music Breakout Group and Choice Single.

Críticas en vivo

This is pop for the new generation. I'd even go so far as to call them to Pussycat Dolls of the new decade.

You're probably familiar with how most girl groups these days rely on twerking or other rauchy dance moves and songs to garner attention from their audiences, but not Icona Pop. Europop has always been a favorite of mine, with upbeat tunes, catchy beats, and uplifting vocals that are full of energy and spirit, and Icona Pop has delivered on all fronts for me.

Caroline and Aino are both absolutely amazing live - Caroline is a brighter voice whereas Aino has a bit more depth, but when combined, you get the perfect combination like marshmallows and hot chocolate. The lightshow just hyped up the crowd even more, combined with the techno-esque elements on their songs, soon enough the entire crowd was jumping, bumping, and having a great time.

They have a song for everyone, from the emotional Girlfriend to the super popular I Love It and the energy-filled All Night.

The only thing that I would say was a bit of a downer was that the concert area was packed with mostly teenagers, so it can get a little pushy at times.
