Avicii

Tim Bergling (1989-2018), better known by his stage name Avicii was a Swedish musician, DJ, remixer and record producer. Bergling has been nominated twice for a Grammy Award, once for his work on “Sunshine” with David Guetta in 2012 and once for his song “Levels” in 2013. Some of his most famous songs are “I Could Be the One” with Nicky Romero, “Wake Me Up”, “You Make Me”, “X You”, “Hey Brother”, “Addicted to You”, “The Days”, “The Nights”, “Levels”, “Waiting for Love”, “Without You” and “Lonely Together”.

“I’m tired, really tired, I’ve been at it since I was 17, 18 years old … touring pretty much nonstop, 300 shows a year. It’s been very hectic … I need a break.” – Avicii, 2013

In April 2018, Avicii committed suicide. He was 28 years old.
In a post “famous musicians who committed suicide” (page ranker-com) had listed 40 musicians (who died by “suicide”), but only Avicii, Chester Bennington, Kurt Cobain, Michael Hutchence were known to me. The list may be even longer than 40, of course.
