Aqua has announced they’re breaking up almost 30 years after they released their iconic hit, “Barbie Girl.”
The Danish group announced the news on Instagram Monday.
“After many incredible years, we have decided to close the chapter of AQUA as a live band,” they wrote. “AQUA has been such a huge part of our lives, and together we’ve had the chance to experience more than we ever dared to dream of.”
The message continued, “When you’ve been together for this long, you also learn when it’s time to protect what you’ve created together. For us, this feels like the right moment to say goodbye, while the memories are still strong, and while the love for the music, the story, and each other remains intact.”

The band concluded the message by thanking their fans and signing off with “nothing but love and gratitude.”
The band is known for their 1997 single, “Barbie World,” off their album “Aquarium.”
