(stylised as Axwell Λ
Ingrosso) is a Swedish DJ duo signed under Def Jam Recordings consisting of
former Swedish House Mafia members Axwell and Sebastian Ingrosso.[1] They made their performance debut at the 2014 Governors Ball Music Festival in New York City in June.
Axwell and
Ingrosso formed the group Axwell Λ Ingrosso officially in 2014. During June of
that year, the band gained prominence among New Yorkers when they began placing
clues about their new album in various locations throughout the city. Their first
performance was in 2014 at the 8 June Governors Ball Music Festival in New York
City.[2] The performance debuted music from a new album they
announced to release under the name Axwell Λ Ingrosso the intro music of which
premiered on air during Zane
Lowe's BBC
Radio 1program.[1] Their performance was also named one of the 15 Hot Governors Ball Moments as well as
one of the Top 10 Best Performances of the Hot Governors Ball by Billboard. They
also made an appearance at the 2014 V

artists as Swedish House Mafia never released an official full-length studio
album. Axwell and Ingrosso also deleted their personal Facebook
pages and created a single page for the group to signify the new partnership.[1] They toured India, as part of Sunburn Arena.[ On 14 February 2014 Axwell and Ingrosso released their first
