"Moth To A Flame" marks the first time The Weeknd has worked with Swedish House Mafia. The electronic music trio, made up of Axwell, Steve Angello, and Sebastian Ingrosso, returned with new music this summer, their first since splitting in 2013. "It Gets Better" and "Lifetime (feat. Ty Dolla $ign & 070 Shake)" both arrived in July. An album, Paradise Again, is due in 2022.
In addition to new music, Swedish House Mafia have also confirmed a huge raft of live dates for next year. The group will head out on the global tour after appearing at the 2022 edition of Coachella. See below for their full schedule.
