ABBA's long-time guitarist Lasse Wellander succumbed to cancer on 7 Apr 2023.

The guitarist began working with ABBA while touring with Ted Gärdestad in 1974. This was the beginning of a decades-long relationship between Wellander and the band, with whom he recorded in 1975, 1977, 1979 and 1980. Wellander’s most recent credits with the band appeared on ABBA’s 2021 album, “Voyage,” which was up for album of the year and best pop album vocal album at the 2023 Grammys earlier this year. He also appears on the soundtracks for films including “Mamma Mia” and “Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again.”
