Swedish House Mafia reunite for homecoming gig... and another tour?
Electronic DJ supergroup Swedish House Mafia on Monday announced they will reunite for a concert in Stockholm next year, hinting a tour with new music would follow.
The trio of Axwell, Steve Angello and Sebastian Ingrosso had a string of international hits in the early 2010s before splitting up more than five years ago.
After making a surprise appearance at a US festival in March, rumours of the EDM group getting back together grew until a clock appeared on their website last week counting down to a live-streamed press conference on Monday.
"We are coming home," Angello said in the announcement, which was entirely in Swedish.
"We start in Stockholm and are going to play the Tele2 Arena on May 4th, 2019."
