Swedish House Mafia manager shares how the reunion really happened

Since the inevitable reunion of the legendary EDM trio, Swedish House Mafia, we’ve all wondered how it really happened. In a recent post, a former manager may have spilled the beans.

Former manager Amy Thomson, recently gave us insight on how it all came together. As she explains, Ultra Music Festival co-founder Adam Russakoff, called her early in the morning like he always did. This phone call would turn out to be very different from any of his other calls.

Adam started by saying:

“Come on Amy, It’s Time. Time for the trio to reunite. Time for the world to see their brilliance again. Time to revive our way of life”. 

It’s truly crazy to think that one phone orchestrated this entire thing. Ever since their reunion at Ultra Music Festival in Miami back in March, the Swedish House Mafia have been making headlines every other week. The Swedish trio will tour in 2019 so be sure to grab your tickets when you can.

Exactly a year ago today I was walking out my door to my car to the airport to fly to Sweden when @adamrussakoff called me and said come on Amy. It’s Time. And one week later it was agreed. Sat in a room where they had genuinely not seen each other for 5 years. Drinking coffee. 3 months later I was on that stage at 6am in a leather jacket testing lasers didn’t burn the back of them. We never got chance to test the fire would go that high except for one unit, but when it went off and those 3 friends who had not seen each other for 5 years were surrounded by fire which i think is the only photo which shows the booth was made from mirror. Which was symbolic for them and underneath it … it was engraved. (But what did it say 😉) This picture came from that phone call which as always was from Adam too early in the morning 🙂 the fire idea came from a meeting where we all said for fucks sake. Let’s just burn the whole thing when no one could decide what to do. Turns out it was one of my favorite show moments ever. 🔥
