MØ, born Karen Marie Aagaard Ørsted Andersen on August 13, 1988, in Ubberud, Denmark, is an eclectic pop artist known for her distinctive sound that blends indie pop, electropop, and electronic music elements. She burst onto the international music scene with her feature on Major Lazer's massive hit "Lean On" in 2015, which became one of the most-streamed songs ever. However, her career in music began years before, as she pursued her passion for music, inspired by the punk and anti-fascist music scene.

MØ's solo career took off with her debut album "No Mythologies to Follow" in 2014, showcasing her songwriting prowess and ethereal vocal style. Since then, she has been a dynamic force in the contemporary music landscape, experimenting with her sound and collaborating with artists across genres. Her discography is marked by a fearless approach to evolving her artistic expression, as evidenced by singles like "Live to Survive," and the thematic "Motordrome," which daringly confronts emotional struggles head-on. Not one to be pigeonholed, MØ consistently pushes boundaries, whether it's through her introspective storytelling in "True Romance" and "New Moon," or through high-energy anthems such as "Reckless." Her versatility and commitment to authenticity have cemented her position as a standout voice and a champion of individuality in the pop genre.
