To remember Tim on this day as well as learn more about mental health, we talked to Tim’s father Klas Bergling. In his memory, Tim’s father Klas and his mother Anki started a foundation to raise awareness and address the stigma of mental health among young people - Tim Bergling Foundation. In 2018, Tim passed away at 28-years-old from suicide after struggling with mental health issues.
From producing hit songs that topped international charts to headlining festivals around the world, Tim will forever be remembered as one of the pioneers and most influential visionaries of electronic dance music. Today’s Google Doodle celebrates the life and legacy of Swedish DJ, record producer and songwriter Tim Bergling - also known by his stage name, Avicii - on what would have been his 32nd birthday.
