“Our beloved Tim was a seeker, a fragile artistic soul searching for answers to existential questions. An over-achieving perfectionist who travelled and worked hard at a pace that led to extreme stress. When he stopped touring, he wanted to find a balance in life, to be happy and be able to do what he loved most: music.”
The statement continued: “Tim was not made for the business machine he found himself in; he was a sensitive guy who loved his fans but shunned the spotlight. Tim, you will forever be loved and sadly missed. The person you were and your music will keep your memory alive.”

“A cause of death has yet to be confirmed, but police has ruled out criminal suspicion in his death,” the family added.
The world mourned and paid tribute to Avicii’s sudden loss. Fans gathered in Stockholm, where they observed a minute of silence, followed by fans dancing and hugging while they played his songs.
“We would like to thank you for the support and the loving words about our son and brother. We are so grateful for everyone who loved Tim’s music and have precious memories of his songs.”
