Icona Pop are a Swedish duo who were formed in 2009, with electro house, punk and indie pop music influences. The two members, Caroline Hjelt and Aino Jawo, who grew up in Stockholm, Sweden, wanted to create music “which you can both laugh and cry with at the same time”. They signed to TEN Music Group in 2009.

In late 2010, their song “Manners” was featured on Kitsuné Maison Compilation 10. “Manners” was later released as their debut single in 2011.
