Kygo (photo) is a worldrenowned Norwegian producer, songwriter, DJ and music marvel who has turned himself into an international sensation in a span of three short years. He was crowned
Spotify’s Breakout Artist of 2015, as songs including Firestone (feat. Conrad Sewell) and
Stole The Show (feat. Parson James), which was certified gold or platinum in 16 countries, helped him become the fastest artist in history to reach one billion streams on Spotify. Kygo’s first album, Cloud Nine, debuted at No. 1 on iTunes
Dance Albums Chart and at No. 1 on Nielsen Soundscan’s Electronic Albums chart. The album received tons of positive attention from critics, one of which was Rolling Stone who called it “unfailingly gorgeous.” Kygo made his US TV debut on The Late Late Show with James
Corden where he performed an acoustic version of Stole
The Show (feat. Parson James). He has since booked several high-profile gigs such as Good Morning America, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon and The Ellen DeGeneres Show. Additionally, Kygo landed on the cover of Billboard Magazine last year surrounding his colossal success. His Selena Gomez collaboration It Ain’t Me remains his most successful single to date, declaring the song one of 2017’s most potent contenders for the official song of summer, explaining that the tropical house-flavored beats “scream summer.” His single,
First Time with Ellie Goulding charted at No. 1 on iTunes in 14 countries and debuted at No. 9 on the Billboard Hot
Dance/Electronic Songs chart. On Sept. 22, Kygo released his
Stargazing EP which included new tracks Stargazing, This
Town, and a collaboration with U2, You’re The Best Thing About Me rounded out with It Ain’t Me and First Time. His latest album, Kids in Love, debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Dance/Electronic Albums chart. All eight tracks from his sophomore album hit Billboard’s Hot Dance/Electronic Songs, bringing Kygo’s total number of charted titles to 25. Kygo’s Kids In Love Tour
