ABBA to release first new music in 35 years

ABBA fans have a reason to shout “Mamma Mia”!
The Swedish pop group announced the release of new material the first time in three-and-a-half decades. Two new tracks are forthcoming, including one titled “I Still Have Faith in You,” AP reports.
ABBA – Benny Andersson, Bjorn Ulvaeus, Anni-Frid Lyngstad and Agnetha Faltskog – spread the word on its official Facebook page and Instagram on Friday.
“We all four felt that, after some 35 years, it could be fun to join forces again and go into the recording studio,” the band noted. “So we did. And it was like time had stood still and that we only had been away on a short holiday.”
Since the pop icons split in 1982, they have worked together on projects including the blockbuster stage musical “Mamma Mia!” that became a hit movie. The sequel hits multiplexes this summer.
But there’s not been new music from ABBA, who broke through with a win at the 1974 Eurovision Song Contest with “Waterloo.” Since then, hits include “Dancing Queen” and “Fernando.”
The group recently announced that they’ll be touring in the form of virtual holograms in 2019.
