Lukas Graham on tour with breakthrough hit, ‘7 Years’

Growing up in the hippie commune of Christiana gave the Danish singer-songwriter Lukas Graham a unique worldview, one that echoes through his confessional breakthrough hit “7 Years,” a song inspired by his father’s death.

With close to 50 million views and counting on YouTube, the ballad is sitting in the No. 2 spot on Billboard’s Hot 100 chart.

[...] Graham, 27, and his band, made up of lifelong friends, are on tour in support of his soulful self-titled album, putting his dreams of going to law school on hold — at least for now.
