ABBA confirms comeback

From Morning Report, 7:26 am on 3 September 2021

One of the most sought-after comebacks in pop culture has actually happened: the return of ABBA.

The Swedish pop band has re-united for their first new album in almost 40 years.

The quartet split up shortly after two divorces in the band in the early 80s, and as recently as 2014 denied they would ever perform live again.

On Friday they announced they were releasing a new album - Voyage - and plans for a series of concerts next year.

Variety Magazine senior music editor Jem Aswad spoke to Morning Report.
