Eric Prydz adds tour dates

To celebrate his recent triple album release on Astralwerks, Eric Prydz Presents Pryda, Eric Prydz is excited to announce more live dates (see listing below) across the U.S. in addition to his headlining the IDENTITY festival in 15 cities across the U.S. in July and August. We are also thrilled to announce an exclusive performance at the Hollywood Palladium on Saturday, July 14th. These are his first live dates in the U.S. since 2007.



Tickets for Eric Prydz Hollywood Palladium show go on sale Saturday, June 16th at 12 noon. They will be available at LiveNation.com, Ticketmaster.com, at select Live Nation and Ticketmaster retail outlets, plus via Charge-By-Phone (800.745.3000).



The IDENTITY festival is North America’s first travelling electronic music festival and features the most cutting-edge acts in EDM presenting them in some of America’s most storied venues, arenas that were long reserved for rock bands.

Just last month, Astralwerks released two complete packages under the Pryda guise, Eric Prydz Presents Pryda. These two products are offered as both a single album of rare, unreleased tracks AND a deluxe triple album those unreleased tracks plus a DJmixed retrospective of tracks originally released on Prydz’s acclaimed boutique label. Order on iTunes here: http://bit.ly/HXNUBZ. Upon release, Eric Prydz Presents Pryda, was the #2 iTunes dance album and his podcast was the #2 iTunes music podcast.

Of the deluxe triple album set, Disc 1 is comprised of new unreleased Pryda productions which some fans may have heard as works in progress (including “Shadows”, “Agag”, “Mighty Love” and “Allein”). Discs 2 and 3 bring together many of the classic tracks from the Pryda catalogue, sequenced and mixed by Eric himself, and including some of his special re-edits. Pryda has become a genre-defining stable and is one of the most successful and influential dance labels in the world. This compilation album rounds up an incredible chapter in Eric’s career so far, laying the foundations for the next exciting phase.



Eric Prydz stands alone in his ability to mix commercial success with underground notoriety. With his labels, Pryda and Mouseville he has been acknowledged by Beatport as one of their biggest selling artists of all time. Both are held in the highest regard by an adoring underground scene and have allowed Prydz to remain something of an enigma while being a household name.


Since his arrival, Eric Prydz has inadvertently broken into uncharted territory for dance music. Festivals, events and venues across the planet have rocked to his performances, safe in the knowledge that they’re witnessing something special. In 2011 Eric launched his innovative new show concept, ‘EPIC’, at London’s O2 Academy Brixton to a sell out audience. This special show features exclusive cutting edge production, 3D holographic video projection and lighting systems. Coupled with Eric’s rousing music it is a ground breaking audio and visual feast.



Eric Prydz’s releases and forward-thinking live shows have allowed him to achieve worldwide recognition with his integrity intact. Now signed to Astralwerks Records, Eric Prydz has started working on his much anticipated debut artist album, due for release late 2012.
