EMERGING ARTIST OF THE YEAR


From 15 - 16 you could find KYGO sitting in his room up in Norway listening to Avicii on repeat. This inspired KYGO to remix and produce tracks of his own, and after gathering over 80 million views on Youtube and Soundcloud, he received a life changing phone call from Avicii and Chris Martin of Coldplay to create official remixes of their songs. We knew he was going to be special when we featured him in an Artist Highlight in early May, and since then, KYGO has not looked back.  He started his year opening for Avicii, and ended by performing on the Mainstage at Tomorrowland and beginning his own world tour. He also inked an exclusive worldwide record deal with Sony Music and Ultra. And between all of that, he has had opportunities to continue pumping out remixes and releasing his first very own original track Firestone.
