A-ha Farewell tour in Canada and U.S.

Legendary Norwegian group a-ha 'Ending on a High Note' farewell tour, May 6-16. Tickets still available.

“It was about time that we reached out a little more,” says a-ha singer Morten Harket of the group’s new album Foot Of The Mountain. Released on 13 July on Universal Music Record Label (URML), the album marks a return to the classic pop sound that made a-ha one of the biggest acts in the world, selling 36 million albums in the process. As keyboard player Magne Furuholmen explains, “It’s an album that incorporates the key elements that first defined the band: soaring vocals, synth hooks, yearning lyrics and melodic melancholia.” Or as guitarist and principal songwriter Paul Waaktaar-Savoy puts it more simply: “I think we got a great collection of songs this time around.” http://www.a-ha.com/about/

A-ha is a synthpop/rock band from Norway, was founded in 1982 by members Magne Furholmen, Paul Waaktaar-Savoy and Morten Harket. The group initially rose to fame during the 1980s and has had continued global success in the 1990s and 2000s. The band is the best-selling Norwegian music artist in history. A-ha achieved its biggest success with their debut album, Hunting High and Low, in 1985, which peaked at number 15 on the Billboard charts and yielded an international number-one single, "Take on Me", earning the band a Grammy Award nomination as Best New Artist.
