She’s been dubbed the Danish version of Grimes, but experimental newcomer MØ is more than just another in the string of recent electro-pop exports. Rather, last year’s Bikini Daze EP provided the perfect mix of dancefloor-meets-balladry style oddball tunes, with tracks such as Never Wanna Know and Diplo-assisted XXX 88 proving she could more than live up to the hype. Having supported AlunaGeorge on their October UK tour, MØ brings her soulful electronica back to Manchester in March in support of her debut album, No Mythologies to Follow (due 24 February), where you can expect a performance that switches between eyeing up the Deaf Institute’s giant disco ball and pulling on your heartstrings.
