During a trip across the US in 2016, Sandro Cavazza shared the early stages of the track with his friend, the beloved and acclaimed DJ\/producer\/musician\/songwriter and performer Tim \u201cAvicii\u201d Bergling. Tim immediately started working on the track, but never got the chance to finish it before he tragically passed away. Inspired by Tim’s demo version played at Ultra Music Festival, Kygo and Sandro have together produced a version to honour his memory. The single release of \u2018Forever Yours (Avicii Tribute)\u2019 will shortly be followed by a full length video where Kygo and Sandro Cavazza talk about the process of arriving at the final version, what Tim and this song meant to each of them.<\/strong><\/h4>\n

In 2015 Sandro Cavazza started working with Tim, top lining and co-writing songs for 2015’sStories album (Sunset Jesus, Gonna Love Ya). In 2016 Sandro was asked to join Tim on a bus tour, driving across the US going through national parks and writing music along the way, ending the tour in Miami for Tim\u2019s show at Ultra Festival.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe wrote many songs during that trip, including \u2018Without You\u2019 in the back of a bus, but also songs that were premiered at Ultra when we arrived there for the show.\u201d – Sandro Cavazza<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Beyond their platinum selling record \u2018Without You\u2019, released on \u2018Av\u012bci\u2019(01) in 2017, \u2018Forever Yours\u2019 was one of these songs.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cI had shown it to Tim two days before starting the tour and Tim had come up with an incredible first demo that he asked me if he could play at Ultra. That was four years ago and I\u2019ve lost a friend since. This version of Forever Yours is a tribute to Tim that me and Kygo has put together to honor what he has meant to both of us. He was Kygo\u2019s biggest idol and his biggest inspiration and that\u2019s what has made this tribute possible\u201d, Sandro continues.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
