Born Tim Bergling in Stockholm, Avicii was one of the most successful EDM artists in the world throughout the 2010s. His 2011 breakthrough hit “Levels” helped to define the sound of a generation. With his 2013 debut album True and its world-conquering lead single “Wake Me Up,” he pushed the sound of dance music to new places, fusing EDM and pop with folk and country influences. He continued to build his legend with 2015’s Stories and 2019’s posthumous Tim.
During his brief lifetime, Avicii racked up countless accolades, including an MTV Video Music Award, a Billboard Music Award, an American Music Award, an iHeartRadio Music Award, a Teen Choice Award, four MTV Europe Music Awards, two Grammy nominations, and two World Music Awards, among many other international honors. In his native Sweden, he was depicted on a postage stamp in 2015, and he accumulated five wins at the Grammis Awards to go along with a GAFFA Award. DJ Mag listed him as one of the world’s top DJs several times, and he was the first electronic artist to headline New York’s storied Radio City Music Hall.
