25 years ago, tweens across Sweden - and soon after, the world - were introduced to the timeless musical stylings of ABBA thanks to a new group of young teens called ABBA Teens. Quickly after their first single, the group changed their name to A*Teens, and branched out from ABBA covers to create their own original music. In this episode Mary and Kelsey discuss A*Teens’ meteoric rise to international stardom, their biggest hits like Upside Down (Bouncing Off The Ceiling), Sugar Rush, Floorfiller and more, and their recent reunion.
