04 October 2018 (Toronto, ON) – Today, ground-breaking Norwegian pop star Sigrid releases the highly-anticipated new single “Sucker Punch” via Island Records/Universal Music Canada, the country’s leading music company. The track arrives as follow up to her critically acclaimed RAW EP, and incredible festival performances at Reading & Leeds and Radio 1’s Biggest Weekend. Highlighting the breadth of Sigrid’s maturing talent and aptitude for song writing, “Sucker Punch” cements the 22-year-old’s rise to pop prominence.
“Sucker Punch is one of my favourite songs so far and I’ve been so excited for release day! Emily Warren, Martin Sjølie and I made it when we were in Ocean Sound Recordings in my hometown a while ago. The song is just a result of our usual way of working: talking, cooking, strolling, singing, dancing, experimenting...! Ugh it was so fun - just like the track itself.” Says Sigrid

With the colossal A-List record “High Five”, the hit song, “Strangers”, and zeitgeist defining “Don’t Kill My Vibe” – which catapulted Sigrid into the public consciousness last year – the pop star will play her biggest headline to date on 12 November, as she takes on O2 Brixton Academy. Sigrid will also support George Ezra in March on his arena tour. See full list of tour dates and ticket information online at thisissigrid.com/live/.
From winning the BBC Sound of 2018, to moving Helen Mirren on the Graham Norton Show and storming the stage at her Shepherds Bush Empire headline, Sigrid’s unforgettably impassioned live performances have sparked mass appreciation and defiant, rebellious pop songs. With her Spotify following tripling since the start of the year, and streaming numbers reaching almost 400M globally, Sigrid is undoubtedly set to continue her ascent with non-conformist and progressive attitudes to femininity with “Sucker Punch”.
