ABBA News – All Projects in 2025: What Benny, Björn, Frida, and Agnetha Are Working On
As the world continues to celebrate the lasting legacy of ABBA, 2025 is shaping up to be another exciting year for fans of the iconic Swedish supergroup. Though the band members—Benny Andersson, Björn Ulvaeus, Anni-Frid Lyngstad (Frida), and Agnetha Fältskog—are no longer performing together as a group, each member remains creatively active, working on their own projects while still honoring the spirit of ABBA. Here’s a look at what each of the four legendary artists is bringing to the world in 2025.
Benny Andersson – New Music and Classical Projects
Benny Andersson continues to explore the world of orchestral and instrumental music. In early 2025, he is releasing a new piano album that blends reimagined ABBA classics with original compositions inspired by Swedish folk traditions. The album, titled Nordic Light, is expected to be both emotionally rich and musically complex, showcasing Benny’s lifelong passion for melody and harmony. He is also collaborating with the Royal Swedish Orchestra for a special symphonic performance in Stockholm this fall, which will include selections from ABBA’s discography.
Björn Ulvaeus – Musical Theatre and Storytelling
Björn Ulvaeus remains deeply involved in musical theatre. Following the international success of Mamma Mia! and Chess, Björn is co-writing a brand-new stage production set to premiere in London in late 2025. Though details are still under wraps, he described the musical as “a love letter to storytelling and music that transcends generations.” In addition to theatre, Björn is leading a digital archiving project that aims to preserve the history of Swedish pop music, including rare footage, lyrics, and studio notes from ABBA’s early years.
Frida (Anni-Frid Lyngstad) – Environmental Advocacy and Select Appearances
Frida has taken a step back from music in recent years but remains active in charitable and environmental causes. In 2025, she is working with several Scandinavian environmental organizations to promote sustainable living and reforestation projects. Frida is also lending her voice—figuratively and literally—to a new documentary called The Voice of the North, which highlights environmental changes in the Nordic region. While she hasn’t announced any new music, sources close to her say she may record a duet for a charity single later this year.
Agnetha Fältskog – Anniversary Edition and Solo Work
Agnetha Fältskog is marking the 10th anniversary of her 2015 solo album A, which saw her return to the spotlight after a long hiatus. In 2025, a deluxe anniversary edition is being released, featuring unreleased tracks, acoustic versions, and a behind-the-scenes documentary about the making of the album. There are also rumors of Agnetha quietly working on new solo material, possibly for release in late 2025 or early 2026. Though she remains selective about public appearances, Agnetha has confirmed she will take part in a special ABBA retrospective program airing on Swedish television later this year.
Looking Ahead
While an official ABBA reunion remains off the table, the creative energy of its members is as strong as ever. From solo albums to environmental campaigns, musical theatre to archival projects, Benny, Björn, Frida, and Agnetha continue to shape culture in meaningful ways. In 2025, ABBA isn’t just a memory—it’s a living legacy that keeps evolving, delighting fans across generations.
