SWEDEN’S NEWEST MUSICAL EXPORT
REBECCA & FIONA
TEAM WITH ULTRA MUSIC FOR THE RELEASE OF
THEIR NORTH AMERICAN DEBUT ALBUM
‘I LOVE YOU, MAN’
OUT JULY 10
“JANE DOE” SINGLE OUT TODAY (MAY 29)
U.S. & CANADA DJ DATES CONFIRMED
Currently reigning Sweden‘s club scene, REBECCA & FIONA have become icons for a whole generation of Swedes and represent what hard work combined with talent can do. This summer, the pair will make their North American debut with the July 10 release of their album I LOVE YOU, MAN on Ultra Music. Leading the charge is their smash single “Jane Doe,” which is now available for the first time on this side of the Atlantic today (May 29). The video is now available at: http://youtu.be/L5yAtj1rozM.
Hailing from Stockholm, Rebecca Scheja and Fiona Fitzpatrick are dedicated producers and vocalists who spend more time nailing loops in the basement of their recording studio than splashing champagne at trendy nightclubs. They wouldn’t have time anyway; they’re too busy killing the dance floor. Since releasing their first single “Luminary Ones” in 2010—one of the most played songs on Sweden’s national radio P3—their stars have steadily risen. Swedish television followed the girls for several months, which resulted in their own self-titled TV show, chronicling their work as DJs, producers and urban girls.
2011 became an even bigger year for Rebecca & Fiona when they released in their country the double platinum-selling single “Bullets” and the double a-side “If She Was Away”/”Hard.” They also garnered a prestigious Grammis (Sweden) Award for “Best Electronic/Dance Album” over works by Swedish House Mafia, Avicii and Adrian Lux. In addition, their hit collaboration with Kaskade “Turn It Down” appeared on his Fire & Ice album.
Rebecca & Fiona, who also list DJs to their credit, have played over 100 shows all over the world alongside talents like Tiësto, Kaskade, Robyn, Axwell and Steve Angello, just to name a few. This spring and summer, leading into the release of “Jane Doe” and I LOVE YOU, MAN with other singles in between (details TBA), look for the duo to appear at some of the top nightclubs around the U.S. including Fluxx in San Diego, Studio Paris in Chicago and Ruby Skye in San Francisco, with multiple appearances at Marquee in Las Vegas. In Canada, they’ll be appearing at Warehouse in Edmonton, Venue in Vancouver and the Escapade Music Festival in Ottawa.
