Powers (stylized in all caps) is a musical duo composed of Mike Del Rio and Crista Ru.

Their music has been described as alternative pop,[2][3] electropop,[4][5] and progressive pop.[6] Time has called their music "groovy and futuristic".[7]

Music[edit]

"Gimme Some" was the duo's first official release.[8] Other songs in their discography include "Dance", "Heavy", "Man on the Moon", "Closer", "Just Kids", and "Georgie".[9][10] The music video for "Closer" was released in May 2017.[11]

The duo's debut studio album, Alpha, was set to release on April 7, 2017.[12][13] However, this release did not occur, as an article in Nylon from later that year wrote about the duo's track "Georgie" being set to appear on their "upcoming debut album".[10]
