The Aarhus-based pop duo ROYA continues their skyrocketing rise with millions of streams, a sold-out European tour behind them, and a global fanbase that grows day by day. It all began with a clip from the single ‘Ain’t Just A Game’, which exploded on TikTok. Suddenly, messages poured in from all over the world, Sydney, Berlin, Los Angeles, Paris. People were captivated by Line Gade and Sebastian Igens’ alluring and energetic universe: a blend of euphoric electronic energy and intimate lyricism, and when they released ‘Cruise’, things really took off.
The house-inspired track was shared in thousands of videos, went viral with more than 500 million views and 44 million streams, and landed on over 30 Spotify Viral Charts. The duo’s intuitive approach to songwriting and uncompromising sound has built a loyal global fanbase with over 2.5 million followers.
In July, ROYA released the single ‘BOY (ZACARIA)’, an intense and danceable anthem dedicated to the next generation. The track emerged in the studio from a random phrase and quickly took shape with simple percussion and a catchy piano riff, developing into a powerful message about hope and global responsibility. Along the way, fans became active participants in the process, and the result is not just a compelling pop track but a call to action about the responsibility we share for the future.
This autumn, ROYA embarked on their most extensive tour to date, with 21 concerts in some of Europe’s biggest music cities, including London, Berlin, Paris, Stockholm, Barcelona, Amsterdam, and Brussels. The tour marks the next step in the duo’s international breakthrough and has already been met with massive demand. With a live format that combines a euphoric electronic musical framework with intuitive presence and improvisation, you can look forward to experiencing Denmark’s new international stars, ROYA, and becoming part of their cruise.
