The hottest lad on the block who is only 22 is coming to Dublin
AVICII
Levels
Avicii’s most notable song has been the single “Levels” which was released officially 28 Oct 2011. The song had already been a major hit in the EDM world all through 2011 but after its official release it became a huge mainstream hit giving Avicii and the EDM movement even greater notoriety. The song was written by Avicii, Ash Pournouri, and an unidentified third party, and contains a vocal sample from the 1962 gospel-inspired “Something’s Got a Hold on Me” by Etta James. The same vocal sample was used first by Pretty Lights in his song “Finally Moving” in 2006. This sample was also used by Flo Rida in his single “Good Feeling”. This song has been remixed by several artists, the most popular were made by Skrillex, Cazzette and Noise inc.
MADONNA GIVES AVICII THE THUMBS UP AS THE SWEDE ANNOUNCES DEBUT DUBLIN HEADLINE SHOWS AT THE O2!
22-year-old Swedish megastar AVICII is, without question, the biggest DJ on the planet at this moment in time. Having recently headlined the world famous Ultra Main stage with none other than Queen of Pop MADONNA, he truly has arrived at nothing less than GOD status in just two short years. Travelling the length and breadth of the globe brandishing his insanely popular and uniquely captivating take on harmonious, pounding, stadium-driven house music, there’s just one very special place that’s been kept waiting…until now that is…
On the 3rd June, Avicii will descend upon DUBLIN for his debut Irish performance to headline at one of the biggest DUBLIN venues there is – The O2!
It doesn’t take a fool to work out that this is one date that’s certainly NOT to be missed. As this will be the first time many Irish will have had the chance to see the Swedish icon LIVE in action, and with a surprise production that is quite simply out of this world, AVICII @ The O2 will no doubt be the hottest ticket in town for this summer bank holiday Sunday.
Tearing up parties at the biggest festivals and most prestigious super clubs across the globe has become Avicii’s modus operandi.

As MTV news wrote, following his mesmerizing stage time with the pop legend;
“Swedish house music producer Avicii is currently one of the most popular artists working in music — yes, in music, not just his native EDM. And that star standing was only reinforced on Saturday night when he headlined a gig on day two of this year’s Ultra Music Festival”
