May 18, 2026Amazing!
The Swedes were the life of the party!
I booked this group for my daughter‘s golden 17th birthday party for which she is a huge ABBA fan and they were worth every penny!
Guest of all ages were thoroughly entertained The Swedes made this day more than special for my daughter.
From the beginning to the end, Linda was great! There was a hiccup in the timing for the group to go on stage due to a mishap by the caterer and the group adjusted to our timeline without a question.
If you are looking to add an unforgettable experience to your party, I recommend booking The Swedes every time!

Thank you so much Natalie for this amazing review!! It means a lot. Just like it means a lot to see that huge smile on your daughters face when we came in. Just the best!! I loved the dance that she did with us in Dancing Queen. She really gave that song a name.
It was a pleasure to work for you and you know what, hiccups happen all the time. We have one goal, and that is to give your daughter the best gift we can. That is all that matters! We will always make it work.
We hope to see you all again!
Have a wonderful summer!
All the best, Linda and The Swedes

About

Linda, the band leader of The Swedes, playing the role of Agnetha, moved from Sweden to LA 2019, and before that she was touring with the original musicians of ABBA that helped write the music, played on all the albums and toured with ABBA back in the 70s. Because of this The Swedes will give you a show that not only delivers the music in a very authentic and Scandinavian way, but you will also get to hear tons of fun true stories about ABBA and what happened behind the scenes.
