The uber popular electro-pop duo Röyksopp are bringing their much buzzed about live show to the US for four exclusive dates. This will be Röyksopp’s, Svein Berge and Torbjørn Brundtland’s first US dates in over 4 years.
Adding to the critical acclaim, legends and superstars alike are raving about Röyksopp’s eclectic sound. Kanye West, Elton John and Perez Hilton call themselves fans making their return to the US even more triumphant.
Their third studio album, Junior was released on Astralwerks earlier this year and entered the Billboard Top 200 at #139, and the Heatseekers chart at #2. The album
is also the longest charting album on the CMJ RPM Chart history with 19 weeks and 9 weeks at #1.

Anneli will be joining the band for these special dates.

…”Junior is arguably the pair’s strongest album.”- Pitchfork
“…smooth sunny sounds perfect for rollerskating on rainbows.- Spin
