ABBA star Benny Andersson's son Ludvig has revealed that the band didn't show 'any nerves' during the first recordings for their new album Voyage, with the project quickly 'snowballing' as soon as they reunited. The band made up of Agnetha Fältskog, 71, Björn Ulvaeus, 76, Benny, 74, and Anni-Frid Lyngstad, 75, are releasing their first new songs for 40 years in the form of a studio album and will play a 'greatest hits' tour as digital characters.
In a new interview Ludvig, 39, - who will help produce the upcoming shows - said that 'it was as if they'd just walked out the door from 1979' when they reunited following their four-decade-long hiatus. Speaking alongside fellow show producer Svana Gisla about the first recordings, the pair told The Mirror: 'They were just incredible... 'They were doing it for themselves, because they thought that if they didn't like it at the end of the day, they wouldn't play it to anyone. 'I didn't see any nerves.
It was as if they had just walked out the door from 1979 and back in 40 years later.' Ludvig added of their shock reunion: 'There was never a moment where they actually said, "Okay, we're never doing this again."'
