Icona Pop and electronic duo Louis the Child have teamed up for a new song called “Weekend.” They’ve shared a video for the song, in which Icona Pop sing as a group of youths—shirtless, rowdy, free—enjoy the titular weekend. Watch it below. “We work hard and play hard, we are constantly jet lagged and we do things at weird times,” Icona Pop said in a statement. “This song is about our beautiful chaos that we think a lot of people can relate to.” Louis the Child shared a statement, too: “The idea for this song was started on a cruise ship, developed in an airport, and finished with a bunch of friends in the studio. Music is a non-stop lifestyle.” Find their tour dates below as well.
