Although less frequently requested, the following might be considered, also.
- A non-performance personal appearance.
An example would be to hire a celebrity to attend a private or corporate party as simply a (non-performing) guest to mingle with other guests, or to hire the celebrity to do a meet-and-greet at your party.
- A virtual performance.
A virtual performance is a live or recorded show—such as a concert, play, dance, comedy act, or other artistic presentation—that is broadcast or streamed online instead of being performed in front of a physical audience. Artists perform live from a studio, venue, or even their homes and stream the show on platforms like YouTube, Twitch, or Instagram Live. Essentially, a virtual performance brings entertainment to audiences through the internet rather than in-person venues.

Kygo: The Tropical House Pioneer Who Redefined Electronic Music
Early Life and Musical Beginnings
Born as Kyrre Gørvell-Dahll on September 11, 1991, in Singapore and raised in Bergen, Norway, Kygo showed an early interest in music. He began learning piano at the age of six and later transitioned to digital music production using Logic Studio. Influenced by artists like Avicii and Swedish House Mafia, Kygo started uploading remixes to SoundCloud during his college years, which soon caught the attention of millions worldwide.
Breakthrough with “Firestone”
Kygo’s big break came in 2014 with the release of his debut single “Firestone” featuring Conrad Sewell. The track became an international sensation, racking up hundreds of millions of streams and establishing Kygo as the face of a new electronic subgenre — tropical house. Its melodic synths, warm rhythms, and laid-back vibe set him apart from the high-energy EDM scene dominating the time.
Rise to Global Fame and Chart Success
Following “Firestone,” Kygo continued to build momentum with hits like “Stole the Show”, “Stay”, and “Here for You.” His unique sound — blending electronic production with organic instruments and pop vocals — led to collaborations with major artists such as Selena Gomez (“It Ain’t Me”), Ellie Goulding (“First Time”), and Whitney Houston (“Higher Love”). Each release solidified his reputation as a crossover artist capable of merging emotional depth with danceable rhythms.
Albums and Musical Evolution
Kygo’s debut album, Cloud Nine (2016), showcased his signature tropical house sound and featured collaborations with Foxes, Maty Noyes, and Tom Odell. His follow-up albums, Kids in Love (2017) and Golden Hour (2020), demonstrated artistic growth — incorporating pop, indie, and chill electronic influences while retaining his melodic sensibilities. Songs like “Happy Now,” “Lose Somebody,” and “Freedom” displayed a matured production style and lyrical introspection.
Live Performances and Achievements
Kygo became the first house music producer to perform at the Olympics, closing the 2016 Rio Games with a memorable performance. Known for his visually captivating shows and piano-driven interludes, he has headlined major festivals including Coachella, Tomorrowland, and Ultra Music Festival. His music has accumulated billions of streams across platforms, making him one of the most streamed electronic artists of all time.
Philanthropy and Personal Endeavors
Beyond music, Kygo is dedicated to giving back. He launched the Kygo Life brand, which includes fashion and audio products, and has supported environmental and humanitarian causes. Through his initiatives, he promotes sustainability and mental health awareness among young audiences.
Legacy and Impact on Modern EDM
Kygo’s influence on electronic music is undeniable. He popularized tropical house worldwide and inspired a generation of producers to blend emotional melodies with chilled-out beats. His sound continues to evolve while maintaining the core warmth and optimism that first captured listeners’ hearts.
Conclusion
From a bedroom producer in Norway to an international DJ superstar, Kygo has shaped the sound of modern electronic music. His fusion of tropical melodies and heartfelt songwriting has transcended genres, leaving a lasting mark on both dance and pop music landscapes. As he continues to experiment and inspire, Kygo’s journey remains a testament to the power of melody and emotion in electronic music.
