In 2002, the two friends Ryan Tedder and Zach Filkins founded the band in their home town of Colorado Springs. In the early years, they caused a stir with their song publications on MySpace. OneRepublic celebrated their first major commercial success in 2007 with their debut album ‘Dreaming Out Loud’ and their worldwide hit ‘Apologise’. Their second album ‘Waking Up’ (2009) featured further big hits such as ‘All The Right Moves’, ‘Secrets’ and ‘Marchin’ On’. Her most successful single, the number 1 hit in the UK ‘Counting Stars’, was a single from her third album ‘Native’ in 2013.
After ‘Oh My My’ (2016) and ‘Human’ (2021), OneRepublic released their sixth studio album ‘Artificial Paradise’ in the summer of 2024, which included the hits ‘Runaway’ and ‘I Ain't Worried’, which were also featured on the soundtrack of the blockbuster ‘Top Gun: Maverick’. Also immortalised on the current long player is ‘I Don't Wanna Wait’, the successful co-production with David Guetta.
The special guest on the ‘Escape To Europe’ tour will be Ella Henderson, whose debut single ‘Ghost’ reached number 1 in the UK charts in 2014. A song that OneRepublic frontman Ryan Tedder co-wrote.
