ABBA: Benny & Bjorn Announce a New Album and Concert
ABBA and Adele are likely to be in conflict on the charts this year, as both artists are set to release new music simultaneously.
After releasing her 25th album in 2015, Adele, a British singer, has been unable to stop fans from searching for new music for six years. (*) But a six-year wait is nothing compared to the 40 years ABBA fans have been waiting – as it was in 1981 that Swedish icons Agnetha Fältskog, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson, and Anni-Frid Lyngstad released their eighth album The Visitors.
This week, ABBA fans were thrilled to hear two brand new tracks from the Scandinavian singers ahead of their new album Voyage – due for release on November 5.

“It is not easy to just move release dates because there are TV appearances, single releases, and major campaigns all setup. If they do go head-to-head, the record sales will be absolutely huge and it is anyone’s guess who will emerge victoriously.”
