Ace Of Base's debut
album, ”Happy Nation/The Sign”, that was
released on 1992 by Mega Records, Danmark, sold over 23 million copies, making it to the Guinness book of records as the best-selling debut album ever and it's their biggest success yet. With hits like 'All That She Wants', 'Wheel Of Fortune', 'Happy Nation' and 'The Sign', they set the world music charts on fire through the 90's and the all world just fell in love with their happy, positive, melodic sound.
The band consists of four members: Jonas, Malin and Jenny Berggren - the three siblings and their family friend - Ulf Ekberg, all come from Goteborg, Sweden.
Israel was chosen as the country in which they'll open their first & only world tour back in 1993.On April 25 that year they performed on the 'Rokdim Azhmaot' gigs,Israel's Independence Day celebrations. One night on four differentstages on different locations all over Israel! The Tel-Aviv gig was the biggest one, where 55,000 people were showing Ace Of Base just how much their positive music is needed and wanted in the world and particularly in this tiny country. The peak of the visit was when the band members took a magical private night trip to the capital, Jerusalem, where Malin got the inspiration to write 'Strange Ways' that later appeared in their second album, 'The Bridge'. Still today, whenever asked about their best Ace Of Base memories, the band members always talk about their unique 93' visit to Israel.
Their latest big promotion gig was done a year ago, on the famous "Night Of The Proms" of 2005,that tookplaceinAntwerp, Belgium, in front of thousands of people and their fans - the Acers.
The band has released 4 albums so far and a hits collection and is currently working with full steam on their next album, due to be released next year (2007).
