The band Svensson has reportedly reunited after a decades-long hiatus. According to Smålandsposten, the reunion began when artist and songwriter Cazzi Opeia heard a 45-year-old song. The band was formed in Eksjö in the late 1970s, but after a festival performance, the members went their separate ways and had no contact for several decades.

The band members include Josef Johansson, Peter Ekdahl, and Anna Forssell Skanåker. Anna Forssell Skanåker reportedly said it felt a bit strange but very fun to meet again. Nya Wermlands-Tidningen, in a locked article, mentions Sven-Ingvars starting the year traditionally, but no direct connection to Svensson is provided in the sources.
