Lukas Graham Announce Fall Tour + New Single “Mama Said”

Lukas Graham, whose hit single “7 Years” just went triple platinum, will embark on an expansive headlining tour later this year, produced by Live Nation. The tour kicks off November 10 in Vancouver, and crisscrosses North America through February 1, making stops at The Wiltern in Los Angeles, The Fillmore in Denver, and Hammerstein Ballroom in New York along the way. The upcoming tour will see the Danish foursome graduate to theatres four to five times larger than the clubs they recently performed in during their sold-out Spring headline tour. Tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday, June 10, at 10:00am local, with an artist presale launching June 7 at 10:00am local. Additionally, Citi card members will have access to presale tickets on select dates beginning June 7, through Citi’s Private Pass program. See below for a full list of dates, and check LukasGraham.com for more info.

Led by vocalist and songwriter Lukas Forchhammer, Lukas Graham has solidified their status as the breakout act of 2016. Their hit single “7 Years,” which they recently performed at the Billboard Music Awards, reached #1 at both Top 40 and Hot AC radio and #2 on the Billboard Hot 100, with over 425M Spotify streams and counting. Now, the band is gearing up for the launch of their second single, “Mama Said.,” which will head to radio later this month.

Lukas Graham’s self-titled debut album has received overwhelming critical acclaim since its April 1 release, debuting at #3 on the Billboard 200 and propelling the band further into the global spotlight with what the New York Times describes as “neatly turned songs that merge the lilt of pop-soul with the quick cadences of hip-hop.” Hailing from Christiania, an autonomous, artistic community in the center of Copenhagen, Lukas developed his natural talent for honest and gritty songwriting. Classically trained with the Copenhagen Boys’ Choir, with a musical scope widened by his Irish folk roots and passion for hip-hop, Lukas possesses a distinct, poetic ability to capture the full range of emotions in his music.
