The Norwegian pop star is back with her first single since her 2019 debut album Sucker Punch.
Sigrid has made her eagerly-awaited comeback to the music scene with brand new single 'Mirror'.
The 24-year-old pop artist teased the new track to fans on TikTok last week before she dropped the single today, accompanied by a colourful music video.
The disco-infused track lands two years after the release of Sigrid's critically and commercially acclaimed debut album Sucker Punch.
The 'Strangers' singer took some downtime in 2020 in order to write her sophomore album after a year of extensive touring and promotion for Sucker Punch - which debuted at No. 4 on the Irish charts.
The new LP is set to be released later this year.

Written by Emily Warren and produced by Caroline Ailin and Sly, 'Mirror,' emanates the same, funk energy that Dua Lipa embraced on her recent disco-escapade Future Nostalgia.
Speaking about the new single, Sigrid said, “'Mirror' is a song about accepting your personality in all its flaws".
“It’s probably a song that would have found its way to me no matter what, as this is a theme I can never quite shake off, but I think this past year of utter silence has made things even clearer. You have to trust your gut, and ultimately, what you see in the mirror."
Video directer Femke Huurdeman said it was important to show a three-dimensional character when creating the visuals for 'Mirror,' adding:
"We built together on a language of movements, and different moods for each scene, all rooted in Sigrid’s own style of performing. She can be empowering, humorous, sensitive, playful, captivating and bold, and that’s something I think you can feel throughout the video."
