Grammy-nominated producer ILLENIUM shared his fifth studio album, a star-studded self-titled collection full of heart, soul, and cinematic beauty, in April via Warner Records. The 16-track set includes the No. 1 dance hits “All That Really Matters” with Teddy Swims and “Luv Me A Little” with Nina Nesbitt.
ILLENIUM performs with friends Svdden Death, William Black, and Annika Wells at Merriweather Post Pavilion on Saturday, July 15, and you can win tickets to go with Parklife DC!
On ILLENIUM, the multi-talented artist shows off his impressive versatility, building sweeping soundscapes that bring out the best in each of his collaborators — no matter the genre. “Making this album, I found so much joy exploring the sounds that have given me lifelong inspiration,” ILLENIUM said. “I feel like I’ve found an ideal balance between electronic and rock music that’s genuine and unique.”
Throughout the album, ILLENIUM leans into a harder sound, joining forces with pop-punk royalty Avril Lavigne and Travis Barker on the propulsive “Eyes Wide Shut” before jumping on board with alt-metal band Spiritbox for the dubstep-fueled “Shivering” and later with metalcore heroes Motionless In White for the industrial-tinged “Nothing Ever After.”

“The music, and a whole new live show, should be unlike anything anyone has ever seen or heard before,” ILLENIUM said. With the album finally available, he is bringing it all to the stage with his ILLENIUM LIVE tour throughout North America.

There honestly is only one other artist I can say that I love their music as much as I love Illenium. There is not a single track I do not enjoy. My favorite one of All that matters with Illenium and Teddy Swim. That was absolutely amazing, but really everything is, it is music that makes you feel all the emotions.
I’d love the chance to go see Illenium. I only hear amazing things about the live show. Eyes Wide Shut is definitely my current favorite song.
