He’s back! Following a cancelled gig in 2014, Swedish superstar DJ Avicii will perform at the Dubai World Trade Centre on April 1, to finish what he started.
Known for global hits such as Silhoutes, I Could Be The One, Hey Brother and Levels, the DJ, whose real name is Tim Bergling, confirmed he would cancel all of his scheduled performances in September 2014 citing health concerns.
He took to Twitter to express regret over the forced cancellations.
“It’s a routine procedure and all going well, I expect to be fully recovered and back on my feet in time for my US True Tour [kicking off in Boston on April 10],” he wrote. “Now I feel like s*** but at least I’m on the road to recovery…”
Just two years before that, the 24-year-old was touring 300 shows in a year without a single full-length studio album to his name. He told tabloid! that the number of gigs he performs has lessened since — though not by much.
“It’s still crazy,” he said. “But this is my dream — being able to make a living in music and travel around like I do. I feel so fortunate. I remind myself of that all the time and that’s what keeps me going.”
Known for his collaborations, including the massive hit, Wake Me Up, with Aloe Blacc.
