Fortunately, our beautiful, old capital can deliver on Christmas spirit, cozy cafes with to-go mulled wine and shops with the perfect Christmas gifts in stock. Veronica Maggio Vega | Sunday, 12 December Veronica Maggio, like no other, can capture the sound of both bubbling and unhappy infatuation. And it's almost impossible not to hum along to the songs. At the same time, add to her charming live energy and you can dance directly into the pop stratosphere. Because with her big choruses and catchy melodies, the singer always puts a bold line under that the pop stars are well developed on the other side of the sound. Since her debut in 2006, the singer has enjoyed massive success among reviewers and fans. With over a billion streams, she is one of the absolute greatest artists in Sweden. When a new single from Veronica Maggio lands, there is also an urge to dust off your Swedish words.
