Kygo teases new album on 4th anniversary of Golden Hour

June 1, 2024

Norwegian DJ and producer announces self-titled album after decade-long career.

Kygo takes to Instagram to announce the upcoming album release, named after no one other than the artist himself. Attaching ‘Whatever’ featuring Ava Max released January of this year, ‘For Life’ featuring Zak Abel released in April, and ‘Without You’ released May 31st featuring vocalist Hayla – this gives a sneak peak of the vibes we will be anticipating for his full album.

‘Kygo’ is scheduled to release on all streaming platforms on June 21st. This compilation is perfect to add to your Summer playlist! Kygo is bound to top the charts and definitely heat up the season.

This album release announcement comes coupled with a world tour. The tour is making stops in North America and Europe starting in September 2024 in Colorado and ending in Ireland in December 2024. The world tour was announced in April; however, the new album will definitely stir up ticket sales.

The tour announcement will feature other artists such as Sam Feldt, Zara Larsson, Gryffin, and Sofi Tukker. Kygo has a reputation for sharing the creative spaces with other performers and he’s unleashed many projects featuring upbeat, pop-like vocalists. His ‘Golden Hour’ album from 2020 features Whitney Houston and OneRepublic. His 2017 ‘ It Ain’t Me’ single featuring Selena Gomez is his number #1 streamed song on Spotify — passing 100 million streams within the first three weeks of his release — on Spotify, alone.

Bringing in over 600 million streams on a single release, Kygo has been receiving nominations as early as 2015 – winning one of his first nominations for ‘YouTube Music Award’ for his “Stole the Show” single. The other nominated categories include ‘Big Room House’, ‘Best International DJ’, iHeart Radio for ‘Dance Artist of the Year’, Billboard Music award for ‘Top Dance/Electronic Album’, and much more.

Kygo originally was pursuing a degree in business and finance when he decided to take music seriously and pursue it full-time with resources like YouTube tutorials, Logic Pro, and a MIDI keyboard. His leading inspiration was Swedish DJ Avicii, who later collaborated on the ‘Midnight’ remix. His career continues to flourish.
