Swedish House Mafia have announced the final leg of their world tour. Spanning the globe, One Last Tour will be their most extensive and extravagant yet and will see the band travelling across continents, visiting Mumbai and Moscow – as well as Joburg and Cape Town.
From February, the tour will hit North America, where the Swedes will once again play New York’s legendary Madison Square Garden as well as two further nights at the Barclay Centre.
Swedish House Mafia will release their second compilation album, Until Now, on October 19, with pre-orders from today, and the album will form the official soundtrack to One Last Tour.
The follow-up to their double gold-selling mix album, Until One, Until Now will feature a collection of the Swedes’ original tracks, remixes, collaborations, club favourites and solo productions.
Until Now highlights include the latest Swedish House Mafia single Don’t You Worry Child (featuring John Martin and which debuted to 65 000 people at the band’s recent UK farewell at the Milton Keynes Bowl in the UK); the previously unreleased Coldplay vs Swedish House Mafia mix of Coldplay’s Every Teardrop is a Waterfall; global club anthems Calling and In My Mind; Steve Angello and Third Party’s Lights; as well as the Swedes’ exclusive remix of Usher’s Euphoria.
After exploding on to the scene in 2010, the Swedes followed up their huge genre-defining club track One with the worldwide platinum-selling single Miami 2 Ibiza, featuring Tinie Tempah.
Both tracks appeared on Until One, which is still in the top 50 charts nearly two years after its release.
The boys followed this with top 10 UK single Save the World last summer, also a huge hit around the globe.
They ended 2011 playing to 20 000 people at Madison Square Garden, which sold out in 10 minutes. So far, 2012 has seen the release of their highest-charting single to date, Antidote, a collaboration with Pendulum’s Knife Party, and the release of the incendiary Greyhound.
During the European summer the band bid farewell to the UK with their biggest headline show to date at Milton Keynes Bowl against a show-stopping back-drop of lasers, fireworks and flames.
One Last Tour will be highly emotional as the band bid a farewell to their fans across the world, and it promises to create unrivalled memories for fans and band alike.
A special and spectacular finish for those who came, raved and loved.
