Lukas Graham Releases New Album '3 (The Purple Album)'

GRAMMY® Award-nominated multiplatinum Lukas Graham releases their new album, 3 (The Purple Album) today via Warner Bros. Records. The 10-track record makes its debut as lead single "Love Someone" follows in the footsteps of breakout hit "7 Years," as it rapidly climbs the Hot AC radio charts, amassing 50 million Spotify streams and 30 million YouTube views before it impacts at Top 40 radio next week. "Love Someone" is on track to become a global smash, reaching #1 in their home country of Denmark and continuing to climb the charts in the U.K., Europe, Australia, and beyond. Lukas Graham recently performed the song on Dancing With The Stars and Jimmy Kimmel Live!.

Listen to the album below!

Lukas Graham recently announced a 2019 North American tour, beginning on February 22 in Portland. Tickets are now available for purchase at lukasgraham.com. See the full itinerary below.

3 (The Purple Album) serves as the follow-up to Lukas Graham's eponymous global debut, which racked up over 23 million units in worldwide consumption, saw "7 Years" hit number one in 13 different countries, and earned the band three GRAMMY® Award nominations - including both Record and Song of the Year. The breakout smash was the highest-selling single by a debut artist in 2016, and catapulted the Danish artist to sold-out tours around the world, critical acclaim from the likes of The New York Times, Rolling Stone, and Billboard, and countless television performances, including The GRAMMY® Awards and the MTV Video Music Awards, where he was also nominated for "Best New Artist."

While Lukas wrote the breakout debut album and subsequent smash "7 Years" in his mid-20s, grappling with the loss of his father, the new album sees Lukas push deeper still, holding a magnifying glass up to his life, laying bare his vulnerabilities and his fears, his sadness and his joy. Now 30, engaged to his long-term girlfriend, and proud father of a little girl, Viola, 3 serves as a "growing up" moment for Lukas as he transitions from son to father. Lukas says simply, "It's a more mature record, definitely, but it has more life in it."
