In Focus the Making of the Visitors
People Need Love – the first ABBA song Waterloo was ABBA’s first single, right? Yes – and no. Join us as we explore the story behind People Need Love, the very first single released by the group that later reached worldwide fame under the name ABBA. Party people failure In this day and age, when pop stars with little previous stage experience achieve instant number one hits through participation in television shows such as Pop Idol and American Idol, it is sobering to be reminded how long it actually took before ABBA achieved worldwide success. Although many in the 1970s regarded the four Swedes as a ”manufactured” band, very much along the lines of the groomed, styled and choreographed overnight sensations of the early 21st Century, nothing could be further from the truth. Not only had the individual members spent a decade performing, touring and recording in earlier groups or as solo artists before they grabbed the world’s attention with ’Waterloo’ in April 1974, by that time ABBA themselves had already been making pop music together for two years – and four years had passed since they first attempted a collaboration. Confused? Read on. The early 1970s was a somewhat insecure period for Björn, Benny, Agnetha and Frida. Benny had left his previous group, The Hep Stars, and although Björn was still making records with his group, the Hootenanny Singers, he knew he couldn’t count on them for any future career advancement. Furthermore, Björn and Benny wanted to focus their attention on their partnership in songwriting and record producing, and perhaps not be performers so much anymore.

Azerbaijan’s ”Hour of the Wolf” was written by Nicolas Rebscher, Nicklas Lif and Lina Hansson during the first ever Stockholm Songwriting Camp at Pop House hotel in Stockholm, january 2015. In addition several pop songs met the public ears during the year, including Conchita Wurst’s ”Firestorm” written and produced by Joacim Persson, Sebastian Arman and Aleena Gibson (who was an additional writer not at the camp), and the song ‘Step to my beat’ which the ‘pop dynamo’ Ronika co-wrote at the camp with Nicolas Rebscher. It was also featured in The Guardians pop playlist. Stockholm Songwriting Camp is an initiative that brings together writers and producers from around the world. It is a hub that values the creativity of others and wants to provide a neutral platform for embracing creativity across the songwriting world. What makes the concept different from a lot of camps is the fact that the organizers do not claim any publishing rights, all property is the writers – it is simply the meeting place. The concept was founded by Niclas Molinder owner of Auddly, based in Stockholm. The second Stockholm Songwriting Camp takes place 5th – 8th February 2016 www.stockholmsongwritingcamp.com Source: Stockholm Business Region/Stockholm Songwriting Camp The City of Stockholm www.visitstockholm.com Follow @esc16stockholm on twitter Follow @visitstockholm on facebook, twitter and instagram Images and stockshots: mediabank.visitstockholm.com Follow @investstockholm on twitter youtube.com/stockholm Facts about Stockholm and Eurovision Song Contest 43 countries will be competing during Eurovision Song Contest in Stockholm, May 10-14, 2016 at Stockholm Globe Arena.

We All Love Abba
WE PRESS RELEASE: ‘WE ALL LOVE ABBA’ ALL NEW BOOK BY STANY VAN WYMEERSCH Following on from his well-received book Let’s Talk About ABBA, Stany Van LOVE Wymeersch now turns the spotlight on how musicians and other creatives from a surprising array of genres have been inspired to draw from ABBA’s ABBA mesmerizing musical canon. The artists’ narratives, from Suzi Quatro to James Last and from Pete Waterman right through to the Sex Pistols, firmly illustrate that ABBA, and their music, have clearly left an indelible fingerprint on the output of a wide and diverse range of firmly established and respected artists. Some even went so far as to integrate or recraft ABBA’s music to sculpt their own unique projects. Whilst the fascinatingly open and frank interviews of We All Love ABBA tack- le the ABBA phenomenon in a highly refreshing and global ‘pop culture’ kind of way, the selected photographs of ABBA and their peers, by renowned lensmen Stock/Aitken/Waterman - Photo: ISOPIX/REX/Shutterstock such as Brad Elterman, Govert de Roos and Aad Spanjaard, secure an enjoyable visual experience that starts in the ‘70s and ends in 2016. The icing on the cake are three unique letters written to ABBA, a photo story featuring Michiel Gunning (pop journalist/ABBA expert) and Dutch girl group Luv’, and finally, a CD-single by Belgian pop crooner Embracingfranki that fea- tures a recording at ABBA’s legendary Polar Studios. TABLE OF CONTENTS AND FACT SHEET List of interviewees - international: Pete Waterman (Stock/Aitken/Waterman), Suzi Quatro, Giorgio Moroder, Andy Scott (Sweet), Neil Sedaka, James Last, Connie Francis, Andy Bell (Erasure), Sweet - Photo: Lebrecht Music & Arts Liz Mitchell (Boney M.), Terry Uttley (Smokie), Glen Matlock (Sex Pistols), Hazell Dean, Conchita Wurst, Carl Magnus Palm (ABBA biographer), Judy Craymer (crea- tor/producer Mamma Mia!), Judy McLane (Broadway star), Rod Stephen (Björn Again), Per Herrey (Herrey’s) and Brian May (Queen).
