Inspired by a heartwarming true story, Avicii has unveiled the official video for new single Broken Arrows. As the fifth single to be taken from new album ‘Stories’ - the follow up to 2013’s record-breaking debut album ‘True’ - ‘Broken Arrows’ showcases Avicii at his emphatic, feel-good best.

The video itself is centered on the story of aspiring US high-jumper Dick Fosbury and his daughter, who lived away from the bright lights in Portland, Oregon. With Broken Arrows powerful, emotive vocal hooks soundtracking the video’s every twist and turn, the story continues to follow Fosbury training hard, his daughter mirroring his every step back at home.

With his daughter watching on, the story ends on a victorious note, as Fosbury takes Gold for the USA in the high-jump at the 1968 Olympic Games in Mexico City. Fosbury’s unique technique, known today as the ‘Fosbury Flop’, revolutionised the high-jump and his astounding success is the perfect visual accompaniment for a record that taps into themes of hard work, friendship and trust.

Produced by Avicii, aka Tim Bergling, ‘Stories’ features 14 original tracks on which he worked for two years to push himself genre-wise and maintain his commitment to crafting undeniably catchy melodies and personal themes. The result is music that is grounded in its vision and surefooted in its artistry. On ‘Stories’, Bergling has also collaborated with some of music’s most distinctive singer-songwriters including Alex Ebert, Matisyahu, Wyclef Jean, Zak Abel, Gavin DeGraw, Zac Brown and others soon to be announced.
