## Background and development

The Swedish quartet, Ace of Base, made up of siblings Jonas, Jenny, and Linn Berggren, along with their friend Ulf Ekberg, took the world by storm in late 1992 with their record-breaking debut album Happy Nation. With success came immense pressure to continue delivering hits and sales similar to that of their groundbreaking debut. By 1996, the stress brought the Gothenburg natives close to the breaking point. They would release three follow-up albums before taking a long hiatus in the early 2000s. The stress would eventually became too much for bandmember Linn Berggren to handle. She officially left the band in 2005, but not before taking a backseat as lead singer starting with the group's third album Flowers (1998) leading to much speculation about the star's personal life. In 2007, Ace of Base reunited as a trio to perform their first full-length concert since 1996 in Yekaterinburg, Russia. They embarked on a world tour entitled Ace of Base - Redefined!, which continued throughout 2008 and 2009. The set list included several new versions of their greatest hits. By 2010, Jenny Berggren set her sights on a solo career with Jonas and Ulf deciding to recruit two new female vocalists and continue as Ace of Base. This led to a rift between Jenny and her former bandmates. Beginning in 2011, Jonas Berggren, through the group's official Facebook account, and the website ReverbNation, began releasing previously unreleased material on a semi-regular basis; this was referred to as "Ace Thursdays". This would inspire an album made up of remastered unreleased material and b-sides, Hidden Gems (2015). In 2020, the band began to celebrate the band's 30th anniversary with a series of anniversary releases. A documentary went into production in 2022. Jenny Berggren continues to perform as Jenny of Ace of Base around the world performing the group's greatest hits. She released her memoir, Vinna hela Världen in 2009. Jonas Berggren continues to write music, while Ulf Ekberg has moved into the world of technology. Much of the never-before-seen footage featured in the documentary comes from the Ekberg's personal archives.
   For my sister to read. To Ulf: You wanted light. God bless you. Jenny, my co-pilot and master of struggling, has got the best voice ever. Listen to her chorus in "Memories Forever". It is so wonderful. And to my hardworking brother Jonas: he also has the best voice ever. Listen to the beginning of "Happy Nation". He has always been the sweetest, most protecting and caring big brother me and Jenny could have had. He has always struggled and fought for our sake from the very beginning. He has worked in the best interest of everyone involved in Ace of Base. They both make me so proud. To my beautiful, kind family of singing philosophers: keep singing, life goes on. Jonas, keep making melodies that change our hurting world into a better place. We were all our joy. Nobody in Ace of Base have forced me to sing. To all of you out there who have loved the music: thank you. Joy and strength. Linn.
