The response from fans was so overwhelming it led to two sold-out nights across the pond at the Greek Theater in Los Angeles in October, described by Billboard Magazine as &#8221;one of the finest and more memorable shows in EDM history.&#8221;<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bejbi.se\/?attachment_id=6595\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6595\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bejbi.se\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/ab_acoustic_blogger_new_0-680x340.jpg\" alt=\"ab_acoustic_blogger_new_0\" width=\"680\" height=\"340\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-6595\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bejbi.se\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/ab_acoustic_blogger_new_0-680x340.jpg 680w, https:\/\/www.bejbi.se\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/ab_acoustic_blogger_new_0-340x170.jpg 340w, https:\/\/www.bejbi.se\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/ab_acoustic_blogger_new_0-380x190.jpg 380w, https:\/\/www.bejbi.se\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/ab_acoustic_blogger_new_0-200x100.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.bejbi.se\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/ab_acoustic_blogger_new_0.jpg 870w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nFor those not in the know, Above &#038; Beyond is Jono Grant, Tony McGuinness, and Paavo Siljam\u00e4ki. Over the years they&#8217;ve gone from remixing Madonna and Radiohead and running the Anjunabeats label to their current global standing as &#8221;the biggest electronic DJing and production collective the UK has ever produced,&#8221; according to DJ Mag anyway. The trio have played to one million people on Barra Beach in Rio de Janeiro, soundtracked the launch of Richard Branson\u2019s Virgin Galactic SpaceShipTwo in the Mojave desert, and sold out the Hollywood Palladium faster than anyone in history. Every week, their Group Therapy radio show reaches over 25 million people worldwide. Wild!<\/p>\n<p>Thump partnered with Above &#038; Beyond to create a concert film unlike any other, capturing the Porchester Hall performances and the story behind the acoustic project in riveting detail.
