Swedish dance music icon Alesso has revealed a deeply personal health battle that recently forced him to cancel performances for the first time in his 14-year touring career. The globally renowned DJ and producer, whose real name is Alessandro Lindblad, took to social media to share an emotional update with fans, explaining that he has been suffering from a severe case of tinnitus—a chronic condition that causes persistent ringing or noise in the ears.
In a candid video, Alesso described waking up to an unbearable ringing in his ears, an experience he called “a 10 out of 10 in pain.” Unlike previous mild tinnitus episodes, this sudden and extreme onset left him in complete shock. “It wasn’t after a show—I just woke up, and it was so intense,” he shared.
Tinnitus is a well-known issue in the music industry, often linked to prolonged exposure to loud sound levels. Many artists, especially those in electronic music, struggle with hearing-related health problems due to years of performing at high decibels. Acknowledging this, Alesso stated, “I know it’s super common in the music industry, but I had a really, really difficult time dealing with this.”
This health crisis has impacted both his performance schedule and social media presence, leading to concerns from fans. However, his transparency about the situation has sparked widespread support from fellow artists and fans alike, with many sending well wishes and sharing their own struggles with tinnitus.
As Alesso prioritizes his health, the electronic music community is rallying behind him, hoping for his recovery and return to the stage. His experience serves as a reminder of the hidden health risks that come with a career in music and the importance of hearing protection for both artists and fans.
