The Story

Formed1986OriginSwedenGenrerock music, pop music, EuropopLabelEMI, Capitol Records, Edel Music AGMembersPer Gessle, Marie Fredriksson, Lena Philipsson

Picture the sultry summer nights of the late '80s, when the air was electric with the sound of “The Look” and “Listen to Your Heart.” Roxette, hailing from Sweden, blended rock and pop effortlessly, creating infectious melodies that danced through the airwaves. The duo, featuring the dynamic talents of Per Gessle and the unforgettable Marie Fredriksson, captivated audiences with their Europop flair. Their hits like “It Must Have Been Love” and “Joyride” still evoke nostalgia, a reminder of youthful romance and carefree days. With Lena Philipsson now joining Gessle, the spirit of Roxette continues to thrive, proving that their anthems, like “Fading Like A Flower (Every Time You Leave)” and “Dangerous,” will always resonate in our hearts, echoing the sweet sounds of a bygone era.
