Frida, whose full name is Anni-frid Lyngstad Fredriksson Andersson, was a Scandinavian solo singer in the 1960s and 1970s before she joined a group being put together by her boyfriend (and later husband), Benny Andersson, Abba. Abba was a massive international success especially during the second half of the '70s; the group disbanded at the start of the '80s, and Frida, who divorced Andersson, returned to solo work with the Phil Collins-produced Something's Going On in 1982. Among her other releases were 1984's Shine and 1996's Djupa Andetag. ~ William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide
