Grammy®-nominated top-charted Swedish DJ/producer Alesso, whose current single “Heroes (we could be)” featuring Tove Lo is ascending music charts worldwide, has scheduled a special night at Webster Hall in New York City on November 4. The intimate gig is a special offering for Alesso fans to make up for the bad weather cancellation of his headlining date at the Electric Zoo festival over Labor Day weekend.
Alesso’s Webster Hall tickets, which will go on sale tomorrow (Wednesday, October 29) at 12 Noon EST via www.ales.so/webster , will be specially priced at $10, $15 and $20, and will feature a charity component. With each purchase, fans will have the option to make a donation to Gucci’s “Chime For Change” global campaign which finances projects supporting education, health and justice for girls and women everywhere.
“As Electric Zoo got cancelled, I missed New York so much, when I was told I could play while I came to promote Heroes in New York – I grabbed it,” says Alesso. “We worked with the venue on an amazing ticket price for fans and the option to give to Chime for Change, so I had to do it!”
“Heroes (we could be)” has jumped to #26 on the Top 40 US Airplay chart with over 20 million in audience and #28 on the Global Shazam chart, and has sold over 80,000 digital tracks. Meanwhile, Alesso’s millions of fans around the world, ardent followers of his many single releases since 2012 (and remixes since 2010), are thrilled that he is working on the completion of his debut album for Def Jam Recordings/Virgin EMI UK.
Webster Hall is a prelude to Alesso’s upcoming round of solo headlining U.S. and U.K. concert events, USA festivals and his Australia tour:
