Olga Myko’s New Single “Gecko” Is the Alt-Pop Wormhole You Need Right Now

If you’ve been waiting for the next earworm to dominate your summer, the search is officially over. Olga Myko just dropped her latest project, How dare you tryna love me?, and the standout track—the glitchy, addictive “Gecko” (feat. Haley Bridge)—is everything we’ve come to love about her sound, dialled up to eleven.

Why “Gecko” Feels Like a Breakthrough

Olga Myko has a knack for creating music that feels both deeply intimate and ready for a festival stage. Since making waves with her 2025 EP, she’s carved out a niche where Swedish pop sensibilities meet raw, unpredictable production.

“Gecko” feels like a natural evolution of that. It’s got that signature, sharp-edged production from Duvchi and Struan Finlay, but with the added vocal texture of Haley Bridge, the song takes on a whole new life. It’s twitchy, it’s catchy, and it’s arguably the most “Olga” song she’s ever released.

What to Listen For:

• The Chemistry: Myko and Haley Bridge trade lines in a way that feels spontaneous. It’s not just a standard feature; they really play off each other’s energy.

• The Production: It’s frantic in the best way possible. If you’re a fan of hyperpop that actually has a soul, this is your new go-to.

• The Vibe: It captures that specific late-night, early-morning feeling of being overwhelmed and energized at the same time.

The How dare you tryna love me? EP

“Gecko” is the anchor for her new four-track EP, which also features “Who’s That Calling?”, “Hot2Trot”, and “TV”. Honestly, it’s a cohesive, punchy record that proves why she’s one of the most exciting artists to watch right now—especially when you consider her background as a songwriter for names like IVE and Molly Sandén. She clearly knows how to build a hit, but she’s clearly having a lot more fun doing it on her own terms.

Catch Her on the Road
