Book now
Kalle Moraeus, Gunilla Backman, Johan Boding, Karin Funk, and an orchestra featuring Sweden's elite musicians, conducted by Johan Granström, will present a grand tribute to two of our greatest songwriters of all time.

It will be a musical journey that takes us from the poignant moments in Kristina från Duvemåla, through the drama of Chess and the joy of Mamma Mia!, to ABBA's immortal hits. But the evening doesn't stop there – music from the Hootenanny Singers and several lesser-known gems from Björn and Benny's rich songbook will also feature.

Thank You For The Music – Part Two will be an unforgettable evening filled with emotion, energy, and magic. The show has been updated with new arrangements and songs that have never been performed in the show before – but of course also with many familiar favorites. The artists and musicians have a close relationship and have worked extensively with Björn and Benny over the years, making this a truly unique show.

Kalle Moraeus - This award-winning fiddler needs no further presentation. Kalle is one of our most beloved artists, a close friend of Benny Andersson and also a member of Benny Anderson's Orchestra (BAO). Kalle was for many years celebrated host of the SVT hits "Så ska det låta" and "Moraeus and more" - Kalle's own TV program series that was broadcast in the years 2011-2017. Most recently in 2018, we saw Kalle fight successfully in TV4's "Biggest looser VIP".

Gunilla Backman - One of our greatest musical artists! Gunilla has played many of the heavy roles in a number of major musicals, including Les Misérables, West Side Story, Miss Saigon, Jesus Christ Superstar to name a few. In 2005, she got the lead role as Donna in the Swedish musical version of Mamma Mia (which Gunilla played with in 2005–2007 at Cirkus in Stockholm). For the contribution to Mamma Mia, she was awarded the Gold Mask in 2006.

Johan Boding - He is recognized as the front man for countless successes with tribute concerts to Queen. One who is impressed by Johan's song is Queen guitarist and legend Brian May. Johan sings everything from jazz and songs to rock and he has, among other things. participated in SVT's "Så ska det låta" and "Doobidoo". He has toured with "Sun, Wind and Water", a tribute concert to Ted Gärdestad's song treasure. He has also had roles in several musicals and was awarded the Golden Mask in 1997 for his participation in Miss Saigon.
