Jubël (duo)
Jubël is a Swedish duo originating from Halmstad, Sweden and made up of Sebastian Atas and Victor Sjöström.[1] They are signed to Warner Music. They had worked separately for many years. But a collaboration in "Illusion" resulted in some fame with it being chosen for the theme of a global advertisement for the retailer and fashion line H&M.[2] But it was their remix of the song "Dancing in the Moonlight" originally recorded in 1970 by Kelly Sherman's band Boffalongo and made a huge hit by King Harvest.[3] Jubël's version released 2018 and featuring vocals by Neimy initially charted in Sweden, Norway and Belgium. A rerelease in 2020 gave a bigger international boost with charting in the UK Singles Chart[4] and peaked at number 11.[1] It also charted on ARIA, the Australian Official Singles Chart also in 2020. The song was used in series 6 of the reality show Love Island in 2020 and spread to TikTok.[5] and reached the top of the British radio list.
