I’m looking forward to hearing 20,000 Indian voices, who belong to different cultures, speak different languages and have different customs and traditions, singing “Who’s gonna save the world” and “Don’t’ you worry child…”together. Join us as we celebrate life and love as One, with the Swedish House Mafia in India.”

This is going to be our last tour to India for the very first time and we are hoping you are ready!”

ABOUT SWEDISH HOUSE MAFIA

The prominent DJ super group who officially set-up in 2008 consist of three house disc jockeys and producers, Axwell, Steve Angello, and Sebastian Ingrosso who are a breath-taking phenomenon internationally with a noteworthy fan following in the sub-continent too. The individualistic musical expertise and dynamic knowledge of the three coupled with their collective history is the key to the Mafia’s continued success. Swedish House Mafia is a monster of its own with a long standing tradition of keeping audience’s energy pulsating throughout the show with exclusive mixes and a "big-room house" bassline driven set. Unfortunately, the band broke a million hearts when they recently announced through their website about their dissolution and that their current tour would be their last together as‘Swedish House Mafia’. Swedish House Mafia’s arena-sized house party profiled by a massive laser-and- pyro-fuelled spectacle completed the revolution of the new musical movement with electronic dance music moving away from DJs spinning in urban clubs to spearheading the international concert-biz phenomenon.
