Pop urgently needed a third Tove, and here she is

Toves Lo and Styrke are all very well, but as far as we're concerned the pop cosmos won't be complete until every female artist is called Tove. That dream comes a step closer right now with the appear­ance of Tove Ask, who releases her debut EP today.

Tove's from Malmö in Sweden (of course she is) and her brand of pop is a bit more club-based than the music we've been hearing from the other Toves.

This is her EP's lead track, which is quite jolly.

There's a video, too — it depicts Tove des­troy­ing one of Ikea's iconic 'heart with hands' cushions, which we believe is actually a criminal offence in Sweden.

"She looks a bit like Kiesza in that picture above," you might be thinking. "But when Kiesza appeared she had that amazing pensive cover of Haddaway's 'What Is Love?'. I bet Tove Ask hasn't covered an old pop banger in a slightly downbeat fashion."

WRONG.

You can find out more about Tove on her Facebook, Twitter and official site.
