POWERS

POWERS is the dynamic electronic pop duo of Mike Del Rio and Crista Russo, blending nostalgic synth vibes with modern indie-pop hooks. Formed in 2014, the pair combines Del Rio’s slick production chops (he’s worked with acts like Kylie Minogue and Demi Lovato) with Russo’s powerhouse vocals, creating danceable anthems like *Legendary*—a track that caught fire in a Samsung ad—and the shimmering *Sunshine*. Their sound feels like a neon-lit road trip, mixing 80s-inspired grooves with lyrics about youth, love, and restless energy.

Known for remix collaborations (like *Sunshine*’s glow-up by The Knocks) and festival-ready bops (*Dance*, *Heavy*), POWERS has carved a space where retro textures meet streaming-era pop smarts. Tracks like *Just Kids* and *Man On The Moon* showcase their knack for pairing introspective themes with beats that stick around long after the party ends.
