BIOGRAPHY
Kyrre Gørvell-Dahll (born 11 September 1991), commonly known by his stage name Kygo, started getting piano lessons at the age of 6. He stopped when he was 15 and started producing music with Logic Studio and a MIDI keyboard while watching several tutorials on YouTube. When he decided to pursue music full-time he was halfway through a degree in business and finance at Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh, Scotland.
He garnered international attention with his remix of the track "I See Fire" by Ed Sheeran, which has received over 33 million plays on SoundCloud and 60 million views on YouTube. On 1 December 2014, he released the single "Firestone", featuring vocals from Conrad (mononym for Conrad Sewell), which gained international recognition and debuted on several charts worldwide. After receiving over 80 million views on YouTube and SoundCloud, Kygo was contacted by both Avicii and Chris Martin of Coldplay to create an official remix of the song "Midnight". He has also supported Avicii at Findings Festival in Oslo, Norway, in 2014. On 19 September 2014, it was confirmed that Kygo was to replace Avicii at mainstage in TomorrowWorld, due to Avicii's health concerns.
Kygo has since released several singles, such as "ID", "Stole the Show", "Here for You", and "Stay", which have debuted on several international charts. Kygo's debut studio album, Cloud Nine, was released on 13 May 2016.
"Stole the Show" is a song by Kygo featuring vocals from Parson James. It was becoming a big hit in many countries and topped the charts in Norway (6x Platinium) and Sweden (5x Platinium). Later, on 21 August 2015, a solo version by James was released. This version was included in his EP, The Temple.
