Ice Cream is a Canadian synthpop band from Toronto, Ontario, consisting of Amanda Crist and Carlyn Bezic.[1] They are most noted for their 2019 album Fed Up, which was longlisted for the 2020 Polaris Music Prize.[2]

Formed in the early 2010s, the duo released the single "Science" in 2014, and followed up with their full-length debut album Love, Ice Cream in 2016.[3] Fed Up followed in 2019,[4] several months after the release of its lead single "Peanut Butter".[5] The album was also supported by selected concert dates in Europe and Canada, both as headliners and as an opening act for Zeus.[6]
