In recent years, worldwide pop hits from acts such as Robyn and Icona Pop have achieved success in America; the Swedish pop producer Max Martin has written hits for acts like Katy Perry and Britney Spears.

Fresh Air music critic Ken Tucker has a review of Tove Lo's debut album Queen of the Clouds.
