Music News: Manager Sues Avicii’s Estate For ‘Misdirected Attacks’
Claiming he’s been ‘overwhelmed with misdirected attacks’ and reputational damage to inaccurate portrayals of his role in the late artist’s life, Ash Pournouri is suing the Avicii estate.
Having managed the superstar deejay/producer/writer/artist (born Tim Bergling) until 2016, earlier this week Pournouri took to Instagram to confirm the litigation. Regional reports followed before the complaint, filed against several companies associated with the Avicii estate, began making a stateside media splash.
Besides describing the action as “the final resort,†Ash called the litigation an attempt “to correct an inaccurate and incomplete public narrative concerning events within my professional environment around Avicii.â€
Months following Avicii’s 2018 death by suicide, the Swedish-born talent’s his stepfather called out Pournouri’s “greed,†accusing the manager of forcing the musician to maintain a grueling tour schedule, which allegedly took an immense physical and mental toll.
According to the legal documents themselves, the same narrative can also be traced to Avicii’s 2021 biography and, among other things, Netflix’s Avicii â€" I’m Tim (2024) documentary.
