Young Karin was formed in 2013 after Logi Pedro Stefánsson and Karin Sveinsdóttir met at a high school song contest. Since then the imaginative, sample-infused pop music of the young duo has garnered praise from sites like DIY, UnderRadar and MTV, plus they also released a well received debut EP. The sound of Young Karin is influenced by modern day hip hop and avant-garde pop and has been compared to the finest Scandinavian art-pop.
