Danish eurodance quartet Aqua are set to reform for a tour marking the 20th anniversary of their seminal "Barbie Girl".
NME (via The Sun) are reporting that the group, comprising Lene Nystrøm, René Dif, Søren Rasted, and Claus Norreen, will be headed out on a reunion tour next year to celebrate the milestone. Dates and locations TBA.
The iconic piece of '90s cheese hit the top spot in the UK charts on its debut in 1997. Aqua's cleverly titled debut LP Aquarium shifted 14 million copies across the globe.
