Swedish pop duo JUNG, consisting of brothers Henrik and Tom Ljungqvist, have released their new single ‘Vacation,’ the title track from their upcoming EP scheduled for release in April 2026. The track is already set to feature in a global travel agency commercial airing in spring 2026.

Bright feel good and insatiably catchy, the single highlights the duos abilities ability to craft vibrant indie tinged pop music. Breezy, bright and colourful, the single is a brilliant example of JUNG’s potential.

“You know that feeling when you get home from a vacation and realise you need… well, another vacation?” says the duo. “You’re more exhausted than when you left, whether it’s from partying too hard or travelling with kids. That’s exactly what our new single captures – the need for a vacation from your vacation.”

‘Vacation’ follows the duo’s previous single ‘Tom Cruisin,’ which received attention from actor Tom Cruise himself. The new single was co-written with producer Tim Powell, known for co-writing Cher’s ‘Believe,’ and songwriter James Bell, who co-wrote Tiësto’s ‘The Business.’ Henrik and Tom’s daughters, Sam and Mary, contribute to the chorus, credited as ‘feat. Baby Hooligans.’

JUNG have a history of success in Sweden, with singles reaching the top 10 on Swedish radio charts, as well as completeing three nationwide Swedish tours, including two sold-out shows at Cirkus, and performances across the rest of Europe and at Way Out West.
