Swedish House Mafia and Sting are working on new music, according to group member Sebastian Ingrosso.
On the group's official Discord server, Ingrosso confirmed that they will soon be releasing a new single called "Redlight" featuring Sting. He didn't mention a specific release date for the track, which features the respected musician, who is perhaps best known as the frontman for legendary new wave rock band The Police.
"Swedish House Mafia feat. Sting -REDLIGHT. Coming soon," reads Ingrosso's Discord message.

After nearly 10 years, the legendary electronic music trio returned in 2021 and are moving forward on their next chapter following their publicly announced split.
“We were exhausted, we were tired. So of course there was tension and irritation," Ingrosso said in late 2021. "Now that we're a bit older and wiser, we look back and realize we needed a break. We we had to miss each other. We had to miss making music together again.”
But now the storied group has reignited their fire, condensing 45 of their new tracks into a full-length album called Paradise Again. They also admitted their sound is getting darker, a notion reflected in recent releases of It Gets Better and Moth To A Flame (with The Weeknd), among others.
"We're always looking for that little bass note that makes your knees go weak," Ingrosso recently told NME. Axwell added, "I don't know if the scene has changed and maybe that's the problem. However, we have changed.”
