The year 1985 saw the birth of two iconic names in modern music: the debut success of the legendary Norwegian band a-ha, and the launch of the world famous Rock In Rio music festival.
In 1991, a-ha played the festival for the first time: their concert, in front of 198,000 fans at the Maracanã Stadium, was a world record for a paying audience.
To celebrate both the festival and the band’s thirtieth anniversary year in 2015, the band have been invited back to perform at the festival for a second time. In September 2015, a-ha will return to Rock in Rio for what promises to be a very special concert.
As well as the Rock In Rio anniversary concert, we are also delighted to announce that Warner Music will be releasing some great a-ha packages throughout 2015.
To celebrate the 30th anniversary of Hunting High and Low, a Super Deluxe Edition of the album with be available in June, remastered and packed full of bonus content.
The much anticipated series of a-ha Deluxe albums, launched in 2010, will continue with new editions of Stay on these Roads, followed by East of the Sun, West of the Moon and Memorial Beach. East of the Sun… will include a bonus disc of a-ha – Live in South America, available for the first time on DVD. 2015 will also bring LP releases of Hunting High and Low and Scoundrel Days, which are back on vinyl for the first time in years.
