Abba the Swedish superstar pop group, known equally for their great music and their really bad costumes are back with a brand new album after 40 years. The music is just as good and their costumes are ……..well!
The two male members were together in London yesterday to announce not just the launch of their new album to be released in 5th November, but also about their impending groundbreaking concert series. All four Abba Members, now septuagenarians, will perform digitally with a live 10-piece band, in a purpose-built arena in London from 27 May 2022.
ABBA, who are estimated to have sold between 150 million and 385 million worldwide, shot to global fame after winning the Eurovision Song Contest in 1974 and are best-known for hits including ‘The Winner Takes It All’, ‘Take a Chance On Me’ and ‘Thank You For the Music.’ The group split in 1982, but the group’s music has remained ubiquitous ever since, spawning a hit Broadway and West End musical, Mamma Mia!, which itself was adapted into a hit 2008 movie starring Meryl Streep. A sequel, Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again, was released in 2018.
