We lost Avicii two years ago today.
April 20, 2018 changed the course of dance music and reading this will never seem real. It can’t be said enough times that we wish he was still here every day.
Rest in peace, Tim Bergling.

Avicii rose to prominence with his 2011 single Levels and his 2013 debut album True, which reached number two in the UK Albums chart.
He collaborated with prominent vocalists such as Coldplay’s Chris Martin, Robbie Williams and Rita Ora throughout his career.
A funeral was held for Bergling in his home city of Stockholm in June 2018.
A posthumous album named Tim, which Bergling had been working on before his death, was released in 2019, with proceeds going towards the Tim Bergling Foundation for mental health awareness.
