=== 2007–2013: Formation and career beginnings ===

Krewella formed in 2007 and consisted of sisters Jahan and Yasmine Yousaf, together with producer Kris Trindl. Jahan and Kris met at a Glenbrook North High School party in 2006. They were in a relationship. Their relationship ended in 2011. Their music is a blend of self-produced [[electro house]] and [[dubstep]], with influences of many other [[Electronic dance music|EDM]] styles. All three members of the band have "6-8-10" tattoos to commemorate June 8, 2010, the day when the three agreed to give up their careers, schooling, and any other intentions for their lives, to dedicate all of their time to the band's joint music career.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://news.iheart.com/articles/trending-465498/tattoo-stories-with-krewella-11605761/ |title=Tattoo Stories with Krewella &#124; iHeartRadio |publisher=News.iheart.com |date=August 27, 2013 |access-date=November 17, 2015 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160203140024/http://news.iheart.com/articles/trending-465498/tattoo-stories-with-krewella-11605761/ |archive-date=February 3, 2016 |url-status=dead |df=mdy-all }}</ref> In December 2011, they were signed to Canadian independent electronic music label [[Monstercat]]; "Killin' It" was Krewella's first original song released by a label.
