L.I.G.A is a Danish urban pop trio[1][2] formed in 2012 made up of Nicky Russell, Feras Agwa and Ihan Haydar. They are signed to RE:A:CH (Chief 1 and Remee)[3] and for distribution with Universal Music in Denmark. After Feras Agwa left in 2015, the formation continued as a duo consisting of Nicky Russell and Ihan Haydar.

Russel and Agwa had been writing separately and releasing a lot of tracks through their respective online channels. They shared some tracks together. They presented some of their work to Chief 1, a Danish record producer and songwriter who joined them for a recording session in his studio. Coincidentally, Ihan Haydar was in the studio and volunteered to play drums and the trio was born. Their debut charting hit was "Skylder dig ik' noget".[1][4] followed by a number of other hits.
