After riding the wave of their inescapable smash “I Love It” in 2013, Icona Pop are gearing up for yet another music-and-party-filled year. And this time they’ll be doing it with pop superstar Miley Cyrus. The Bangerz Tour kicks off on Valentine’s Day 2014, and the Swedish duo told MTV News they expect it to be a completely new kind of experience.
“We feel very honored to be on her tour,” flame-haired Caroline Hjelt told MTV News.
“It’s gonna be a big party … a girl-powered tour,” chimed in Hjelt ‘s Pop partner, Aino Jawo.
Icona Pop and Miley will also be joined by Sky Ferreira for the North American leg, adding yet another talented lady to the lineup. And while Hjelt and Jawo are no strangers to performing alongside major music-industry stars, performing on the same stage as Cyrus will be different, they said.

“When you go on tour with someone you think is great, you learn a lot and you get inspired,” Jawo explained. “Of course, it’s so much fun to be on tour with someone we like. We love her music, so I think we’ll learn a lot.”
The electronic twosome will not, however, be getting studio time with Miley in the near future. Icona Pop told us they have a lot of work to do before that can happen.

“We would love to do everything with her but I think she’ll have to learn first some Swedish words and we’ll have to learn how to twerk,” Jawo laughed. Hopefully, for their fans’ sakes, they’ll work out these small compatibility issues on the road.
The Bangerz Tour launches February 14, 2014.
