About Avicii
Avicii is renowned for his spectacular live shows, bringing audiences to ecstatic moments of party bliss and ‘driving the crowd bonkers” (Rolling Stone). After just three years of performing, Avicii rocketed to the #3 position on DJ Mag’s yearly poll of the Top 100 DJs and appeared on Forbes Most Powerful Artists Under 30 in 2013 and 2014. His first album, last year’s TRUE, was named Album of the Year by Elektro and the New York Times called Avicii “savvy and timely,” and “an artist carrying today – and tomorrow – on his shoulders.” Dancing Astronaut wrote, “…timeless…an hour of excellence.” “Wake Me Up,” the first single from the album, was #1 in 81 countries, is triple platinum in the U.S., and the video for the track has been watched over 260 million times on YouTube alone. “Hey Brother,” his current single, is exploding at radio and its video has received raves around the world: http://www.youtube.com/

Avicii broke out with his international mega-hit “Le7els” which conquered club charts worldwide, garnered over 83 million YouTube views and sold over 4 million singles; and “Silhouettes,” which netted over 40 million views. 24-year old Avicii leads the next generation of electronic music producers to explode, propelling him into the ranks of superstar DJs who are able to perform to massive crowds. He is the face of Denim & Supply Ralph Lauren, which has been a true creative partnership between Avicii and the brand. Avicii and manager Ash Pournouri have donated over $2.5 million to hunger initiatives through their House for Hunger charity, including royalties from Avicii X You, the first ever worldwide music collaboration.

At Night Management
With offices in Stockholm, New York and Los Angeles, At Night Management and founder Ash Pournouri bring a creative and innovative perspective to music management and marketing. Ash’s eye for raw talent and the experience to nurture it is combined with a strategy that’s based on leveraging fame into a brand that transcends music into areas such as fashion, movies and charity. He has created brand and licensing deals such as with Bud Light and Ralph Lauren’s “Denim & Supply” line—the first ever celebrity relationship for the venerable brand. It is Pournouri’s singular vision that has brought standards for marketing and innovation around ULTRA and WMC to a new high and that has masterminded the meteoric rise of Avicii.

Pournouri’s role as a producer and manager earned him a Grammy nomination and a place on Billboard magazine’s “Dance Music’s Most Influential Executives,” which dubbed him the “Scooter Braun of EDM”. He is also the creative force behind the Avicii videos, which have over 600million views on Youtube and earned multiple MTV nominations. He has launched a new record label and his penchant for creating new paradigms has led to his development of the duo Cazzette, the first artists ever to be launched on Spotify. He has also created the House for Hunger charity with Avicii and together they have given over $2.5 million to hunger initiatives.
