Kygo

Kygo is a Norwegian DJ, songwriter, and record producer who broke into the electronic music scene in 2013 with the single, “Epsilon.” His tropical house sound evokes a dreamy summer day. This quality, plus his many chart-topping collaborations, helped him stand out in a genre that tends to rely on hard-hitting, frenetic beats. A Billboard Music Awards nominee, Kygo became the first house music artist to perform at an Olympics closing ceremony when he took the stage in Rio. Perhaps what’s most special about Kygo is his ability to drench his audiences in cheery, uplifting vibes, making him a fan-favorite worldwide. While Kygo gained fame for lower-tempo music, his unique rhythms can make a great backdrop for any workout. His remix of Whitney Houston’s “Higher Love” has rushing swells to help you stay charged up. Whether you’re in a flow or an interval, the drippy synth beats and empowering lyrics of “Whatever” are inspiration to keep moving with your head held high.
