Post Malone, Lukas Graham and Lenny Kravitz to play Tinderbox 2020

First headliners for Tinderbox 2020 announced. They will be joined by Zara Larsson, Folkeklubben & Jonah Blacksmith. First acts announced for Magicbox are Oliver Heldens, Nonsens and Toby Green.
Tinderbox 2019 delivered yet another amazing party in Odense, Denmark, where international stars, magical atmosphere and incredible guests all came together in sweet, chaotic festival harmony. Early Bird tickets for next year’s festival are long gone, and recently Tinderbox revealed that next years’ festival offers a relaunched and more sustainable accommodation site, TB Camping.
In less than five years, Post Malone has become one of the greatest and most played artists of our time. Critics have stopped attempting to categorise “Posty” as either a rapper, pop star, or even singer-songwriter. With a whopping 8.2 billion streams on Spotify in 2018 alone, his status as a worldwide phenomenon cannot be questioned. All five tracks from the mega star’s third studio album “Hollywood’s Bleeding” are currently topping the Spotify lists. The variety from the rock song “Take What You Want” in collaboration with Travis Scott and Ozzy Osbourne, to the pop song “Circles” is the epitome of the diversity that makes Post Malone impossible to categorise and easy to love.
It has been just four years, since the first single “White Iverson” from the debut album “Stoney” was released, and the world first became acquainted with the then 20-year-old Texan. In 2017 the massive hit “Rockstar” from the second album “Beerbongs & Bentleys” was all over, and later that year Post Malone was the first artist ever to have eight Top 20 singles on Billboard’s Top 100. The star is inspired by legends such as Dylan, Cash and Cobain, and combined with new acquaintances like Travis Scott, Kanye West and SZA, Post Malone manages to magically cross genres, social classes and states of mind that both unite and impress.

Having just won three Danish Music Awards and having released the new single “Lie” just a few weeks back, Lukas Graham are now ready to conquer Tinderbox 2020. Since the debut with “Ordinary Things” in 2011, the Danish hitmakers have taken the international stage by storm. It all culminated with a massive American breakthrough thanks to “7 Years”, which today has generated more than a billion streams on Spotify. “7 Years” as well as three Grammy nominations for “Record of the Year”, “Song of the Year” and “Best Pop Duo/Group Performance” in 2016. In Forchhammer’s own words, the musical universe can best be described as “ghetto pop with a touch of soul”, which is easily recognizable on “Mama Said”, “Love Someone” and “Drunk in the Morning”.
The band’s international debut album reached the Top 10 in 11 countries, including Top 3 rankings in the US, UK and Sweden, as well as #1 in Canada, Australia and Denmark. In Denmark the album is now certified with 10 x Platinum.

Tinderbox will be presenting a true rock icon, when Grammy winner Lenny Kravitz go on stage in Odense. Lenny Kravitz is the man behind one massive hit after another. He made sure the world could party to “American Woman”, “Fly Away” and “Are You Gonna Go My Way”, while undoubtedly also having been the soundtrack to quieter moments with “It Ain't Over ‘Till It’s Over”, “I Belong To You” and “Again”. Kravitz released his first studio album “Let Love Rule” in 1989, and since then he has released a total of 11 albums, the latest being “Raise Vibration” from 2018 with the singles “Low” and “5 More Days ’Til Summer”. The sound is classic rock with multiple references to reggae, soul, pop and several other genres. There is no doubt that Kravitz is a legend among today’s rock stars.

In August she visited Tusindårsskoven with none other than Ed Sheeran, and now we have the pleasure of welcoming Zara Larsson back, when the 21-year-old Swedish pop star visits Tinderbox 2020.
With massive hits such as “Uncover” and “Lush Life”, Zara Larsson is already a renowned worldwide artist. Larsson’s career kick-started back in 2008 when she at only 10 years old won “Talang” - the Swedish version of the “Got Talent” series. In 2013 she released her first EP, “Introducing”, in which the hit single “Uncover” was ranked #1 in Sweden, Denmark and Norway. In 2015 the international stage opened up in earnest, when “Lush Life”, the first single from her second album of the same name, was released. “Lush Life” today has more than 600 million views on YouTube. In 2018, Larsson featured on the Clean Bandit hit “Symphony” which has been streamed more than 800 million times, and Forbes Magazine included Larsson on their “30 under 30” list. The same year, we had the pleasure of the long-awaited first single “Ruin My Life” from the singer’s unreleased third album. Larsson has since teased us with four more singles in 2019, most recently, “All The Time”. If the rumours hold true, we have collaborations with, among others, Ariana Grande to look forward to.

Since their debut album “Nye Tider”, we have gotten to know Folkeklubben as a trinity with a strong message to share and an impressive ability to captivate a live audience. The band delivers amazing tunes and lyrics with boldness and poetic prowess, and at the same time they manage to touch their audience with much more than music. In 2013, the group released their debut album “Nye Tider” with the breakthrough single “Fedterøv”, and in 2014, their collaboration with the Danish hip hop group Suspekt on the hit “Danmark” emphasised that Folkeklubben has become a permanent part of the Danish music scene. “Sort Tulipan”, the band’s fourth album, was released in 2018 with hits such as “Men Ikke Endnu En Vinter” and “Flammende Hjerter”.
Folkeklubben will play Tinderbox Friday, June 26th
Tinderbox guests can most likely look forward to new tunes from Danish Jonah Blacksmith, when they visit Tinderbox 2020. The experienced and critically acclaimed live band is currently in the studio recording their fourth album, and audiences can expect yet another rock-solid example of how art and music goes hand in hand. Jonah Blacksmith takes their departure in down-to-earth themes, and it is clearly the joy of both music and life, which binds the seven-man strong ensemble together.

With three formidable acts for Magicbox in the form of Oliver Heldens, Nonsens and Toby Green, the foundation has been laid towards another crazy DJ extravaganza. You can’t say Nonsens without saying “Unz Unz”. The track, released in collaboration with Specktors, has become one of the absolute biggest hits of 2019, and at Magicbox, we look forward to welcoming the EDM trio from the Danish island of Bornholm in 2020. Since 2013, the three members have toured the world with their ‘90s-inspired and hyper-dynamic sound, and we expect both inflatable water toys and confetti, when the group visits Tinderbox 2020.
It was the huge hit “Gecko (Overdrive)” that caused Tiësto to look in the direction of compatriot Oliver Heldens, and in the same year sign him to his own record label. Heldens delivered a mind-blowing performance at this year’s Tomorrowland Festival and in September he released the single “Turn Me On”. The Danish comet Toby Green is also performing at Magicbox. In 2019, Green drew attention to himself with “Work It”, which ended up on the set lists of, among others, Tiësto, Nicky Romero and Afrojack.
-Being able to present Post Malone – perhaps the biggest name in the world right now – shows how far we have come in the short life of the festival. With this long string of superb acts, it is safe to say that Tinderbox 2020 continues, where we left off. We look forward to presenting an updated camping area, several new sustainable initiatives and, not least, new exciting initiatives and areas in Tusindårsskoven. 2020 will be another magical festival year in Odense, festival director, Brian Nielsen, states.
Tinderbox takes place in Tusindårsskoven, Odense, Denmark June 25th -27th. Tickets are available on Tinderbox.dk
