It was not the shows and not the music. It was always the other stuff surrounding it that never came naturally to me. All the other parts of being an artist. I'm more of an introverted person in general. It was always very hard for me. I took on board too much negative energy, I think.인터넷바카라

  • His death comes just before the long-planned Washington DC screening of the film, AVICII: TRUE STORIES, scheduled for this Sunday, April 22.

  • In conjunction with the exhibition The Creative Nation: Swedish Tech and Innovation, the House of Sweden is showing AVICII: TRUE STORIES By Levan Tsikurishvili on April 22 at 3 p.m. The event is free.

    The film traces the Swedish artist/DJ인터넷바카라s life from his beginnings, all the way to the joy of his success, from his chart-topping global radio hits and subsequent struggles with his physical and mental health. Tsikurishvili followed Bergling for over four years, and captured fly-on-the-wall footage of his experiences and thinking. The film reveals the choices he faced and his thoughts at the time.

  • Featuring appearances by colleagues such as Chris Martin, Nile Rodgers, David Guetta and Wyclef Jean, Avicii: True Stories is a cautionary tale that explores the taxing nature and intensity of fame from the artist's point of view as much as it is a film for Avicii인터넷바카라s die-hard fans.

    "I wanted to do a brutally honest film about Tim as a person and not only about Avicii. Everybody knows Avicii but very few people know Tim. I think this documentary really shows Tim인터넷바카라s struggle and strength of character. Being a worldwide superstar artist is not as easy as it looks on Instagram,인터넷바카라 Tsikurishvili says.

  • RSVP (it's free) to attend the screening
