Isac Elliot is a lot of things: Talented, stylish, *totally* cute...the list could go on. One of the things Isac isn't? Lazy. The 15-year-old pop singer from Finland has spent his summer vacation—or holiday, as they call it in Scandinavia—doing almost anything but vacationing. Between playing countless summer festivals and logging hours in the recording studio, he's doing the opposite of what any teenager wants to do during the summer: work.

But, hey, it's workin' for him. Isac's sound is everything right with pop and EDM right now (think Justin Bieber, but with a delectable accent—*swoon*) and his lyrics are catchier than "Call Me Maybe." You've probably heard his song "Lipstick," feat. Tyga or his summer EP A Little More. It's his third album, though, that fans have been dying to get their hands on—and something Isac promised to them quite a while ago.

"We’ve been working on an album for over two years now, which is a long time," Isac admits. "I kind of promised to release the album for the summer gigs, but..."

...but, unfortunately, it didn't happen. Fear not, ladies, for Isac says that the album is actually-for-sure-definitely-absolutely coming this fall and will showcase his distinct sound: "Pop with a bit of urban flavor." Listen to his latest single "What About Me" below for a taste of what this cutie is capable of.

Isac has been killin' it in his home country of Finland for years now. There, life pretty much comes to a screeching halt in the summer. Essentially, the country shuts down for the month of July while everyone (well, everyone but Isac) takes time off to unwind and enjoy the holiday. If you thought the U.S. took summer seriously, Finland puts us to shame. 

We caught up with Isac recently where he exclusively filled us in on every unforgettable moment from his past few months. Peep the pics below!
