Initially launching their career as a harmonizing indie folk duo, Sweden's Hearts & Colors found viral success in late 2016 when their song "Lighthouse" was remixed by electronic DJ and producer <a href="spotify:artist:5M2y5A6d5QZjw9JeKClagC">Andrelli</a>. Forging ahead in a lusher, more electronic pop style, the group released a steady stream of singles over the next few years, finding success on streaming platforms with tracks like 2017's "For the Love" and 2018's "L.A. on a Saturday Night."

Prior to this, friends Philip Tillström and Nicolai Kjellberg got their start in 2014, applying their soaring harmonies to acoustic covers of popular hits by artists like <a href="spotify:artist:4AK6F7OLvEQ5QYCBNiQWHq">One Direction</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:1uNFoZAHBGtllmzznpCI3s">Justin Bieber</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:0du5cEVh5yTK9QJze8zA0C">Bruno Mars</a>, which they uploaded to music-sharing sites. "Lighthouse," originally an acoustic piano ballad featured on their 2016 EP Prologue, became a charting hit in Sweden, Norway, and parts of Europe following <a href="spotify:artist:5M2y5A6d5QZjw9JeKClagC">Andrelli</a>'s downtempo dance remix of the song. Shifting away from their acoustic roots, Hearts & Colors returned in early 2017 with "For the Love" and "Shame," a pair of slickly produced singles that reflected the EDM style of their hit. After adding their vocals to German producer <a href="spotify:artist:4bL2B6hmLlMWnUEZnorEtG">Felix Jaehn</a>'s track "Like a Riddle," Tillström and Kjellberg joined <a href="spotify:artist:5M2y5A6d5QZjw9JeKClagC">Andrelli</a> once more for 2018's "Yung Luv." A barrage of singles arrived throughout the remainder of the year, including "L.A. on a Saturday Night." 2019's "Lion" carried on in the duo's latter-day smooth pop style while the acoustic "I Don't Care" relied more heavily on the acoustic guitars and harmonies of Hearts & Colors' early days. ~ Timothy Monger, Rovi
