DIRTY LOOPS IN CONCERT:
It's hard to tell who has the most fun at a Dirty Loops concert. Is it the crowd, treated to a groovy set brimming with uniquely arranged pop fusion jams? Or is it the trio onstage, serving up a delicious cocktail of jazz and pop blended with '70s and '80s R&B funk? It's a toss-up, as the Swedish collective ensures their live performances are joyous and unforgettable experiences for everyone. Stellar musicianship takes center stage at the band's shows, which feature drummer Aron Mellergardh's powerhouse percussion skills alongside bassist Henrik Linder's slick bass lines. Helming the show is frontman Jonah Nilsson, whose piercing falsetto and huge range recall legends like Stevie Wonder and Curtis Mayfield. The top-notch production and polished arrangements of their recorded songs translate beautifully to the stage, and Dirty Loops continue to stun ticket buyers with note-perfect performances on tour.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Bassist Henrik Linder, drummer Aron Mellergardh, and vocalist/keyboardist Jonah Nilsson formed Dirty Loops in 2008 while attending the Royal College of Music in Stockholm, Sweden. The trio's big break came when their version of Lady Gaga's "Just Dance" racked up a whopping 100,000 views on YouTube in just two months. They followed it up with creative covers of pop songs by Justin Bieber, Adele, Rihanna, Britney Spears, and Justin Timberlake. The viral videos caught the attention of Swedish producer/songwriter Andreas Carlsson, who promptly signed them to a management deal. Producer/songwriter David Foster then signed the group to Universal Music subsidiary Verve Records and brought them on his 2012 Asian tour. The band released their debut album Loopified in 2014, which boasts two covers and 10 original tracks including standout single "Hit Me". Their 2014-2015 Loopified tour is taking them through Europe, the U.S., and Asia, delivering their energetic shows to crowds all over the world.

Amazing musicians. Unique sound and ridiculous music making. Dirtyloops has spoiled pop music for me.
This is what we call music! Absolutely impressive performance!
Woah - talk about an incredible live show. The Dirty Loops did not disappoint. Having only seen their YouTube videos, I wasn't sure if they would be able to replicate the sound while performing live but they were unbelievable. The riffs were spot on and the entire set was in your face, pure sex. Incredible live.
These guys are so much fun to watch. They're clearly having a blast on stage, and it shows in the music.
Took my 4 years old and we had an amazing time! The boys were superb! Incredibly talented!!! We were enjoying to the max the uniquely arranged pop fusion jams, the sound, the vocals - everything wonderful! Irving Plaza was packed! BRAVO DIRTY LOOPS!
Better musicianship would be hard to find. From Henrik's inventiveness and total command of the bass to Jonah's incredible vocal range and keyboard prowess, to Aron's mesmerizing drumming the night was always top-notch - as was the sound. Really a perfect mix, with everything just where it should be. They were also wonderfully entertaining and warm - it doesn't get any better than this.
Dirty Loops are the epitome of musicianship, catchiness, and stage presence. This show was amazing.
