The Swedish dance music icon Alesso has recently made a social media announcement that sent shockwaves through the EDM world like a surprise drop in a rave. Due to health concerns, the DJ has been forced to cancel his shows in Australia and Saudi Arabia, leaving fans feeling as deflated as a balloon after a bass drop.
A DJ on Pause: Prioritizing Health over Beats
Alesso took to Instagram to deliver the concerning news about his tour. This giant of sound was supposed to perform in Saudi Arabia and Australia, where fans were eagerly anticipating a b2b set that would rock the decks: a monumental collaboration with the new #1 DJ in the world, Martin Garrix. Instead, Alesso had to cancel due to health concerns. It's like planning a festival and forgetting the headliner—just not cool!
“This is the first time in my 14 years of touring that I have had to make such a drastic choice.”
Substitutes on the Lineup
Alesso's shows down under in Melbourne, Sydney, and Brisbane, along with the MDL Beast Soundstorm in Riyadh, were expected to be unforgettable experiences. But fear not, as the Palm Tree Festival has already swapped out Alesso for the electronic duo Peking Duk, ready to take the stage like musical superheroes.
- Replacement 1: Peking Duk, set to make the crowds dance like wild, with or without Alesso.
- Replacement 2: While our hearts beat for Alesso, we’re thrilled the party continues!
- Replacement 3: For once, DJs are taking a moment to reflect!
We wish Alesso a speedy recovery because we can’t wait to see him back behind the decks, ready to drop hits like his life depends on it—and that’s what we call reaching another level!
