Benny Andersson Finally SHOCKS Fans About ABBA’s Future Plans in 2025
In a move that stunned fans around the world, Benny Andersson, one of the founding members and musical masterminds behind ABBA, has finally broken his silence about the iconic group’s future — and what he revealed in 2025 was nothing short of shocking.
During a recent interview with Swedish media, the 78-year-old composer and producer candidly addressed the rumors that had been swirling for months about ABBA’s next steps following the massive success of the ABBA Voyage virtual concert residency in London. Many believed that ABBA had already closed the final chapter of their story with the release of their 2021 comeback album Voyage, which was their first new material in 40 years. However, Andersson’s latest comments have turned that belief on its head.
“We said ‘that’s it’ after Voyage,” Benny began, “but then something strange happened. We started writing again — not for a big comeback, not for an album, just for ourselves. And it felt good.”
This simple statement has caused an explosion of speculation in the music world. Could ABBA be working on new music again? According to Benny, the group — while not officially reuniting in the traditional sense — has not ruled out the possibility of releasing a few new songs, perhaps even in collaboration with the groundbreaking digital “ABBAtars” used in their immersive shows.
Benny went on to say that he, Björn Ulvaeus, Agnetha Fältskog, and Anni-Frid Lyngstad remain in close contact, especially after the unexpected emotional and commercial success of the Voyage project. While they are no longer interested in touring physically, the group has grown increasingly open to creative projects that don’t involve the physical strain of performing live.
One of the most surprising revelations was the possibility of a second phase of ABBA Voyage — not just in London, but potentially in other global cities like New York, Tokyo, and Sydney. “The technology is there. The music is there. Why not share it with the rest of the world?” Benny remarked, hinting that the current production model could expand far beyond its original scope.
Andersson also touched on a possible documentary or film project that could dive deeper into the creation of Voyage, the personal stories behind ABBA’s reunion, and how technology helped redefine what a “concert” could be. While he didn’t confirm anything specific, he smiled and added, “There’s more to tell.”
Despite their age and earlier insistence that ABBA would never reunite, Benny Andersson’s 2025 revelation shows that creativity has no expiration date. Fans around the world are buzzing with excitement, hopeful that more music — and more magic — may still be on the way.
In a world constantly changing, ABBA’s music has remained timeless. And now, thanks to Benny’s surprising confession, it seems that the story of ABBA isn’t over just yet.
