You don’t care? You love it? Well so do we. Check out our lowdown on the Springfest performers this year!
ICONA POP: They are most known for their song “I Love It,” popularized by the lovely Lena Dunham in Girls. But don’t worry, you don’t have to be an HBO fiend to enjoy their music. This Swedish pop DJ dynamic duo got together in 2009 aiming to make you “laugh and cry” while listening to their music. Maybe skip the crying this year.
Check out some of their most popular songs:
