Could this be a future Swedish classic? “2017–2022” with KC BABY

KC BABY: '2017-2022'

The duo KC BABY are releasing a summer single that packs big emotions into a condensed format. ‘2017-2022’ has the potential to become a Swedish classic.

When KC BABY formed in 2017, it was the result of two people’s intense shared passion for music. However, it was also a natural consequence of sound artist Kajsa Magnarsson and Bob Hund icon Conny Nimmersjö becoming a couple. When they parted ways five years later, they chose to maintain and develop their shared bond in the form of KC BABY.

The single ‘2017-2022’ is now being released from their second album, ‘Nästan perfekt’.

When a relationship ends, the reason is rarely clear-cut. In ‘2017–2022’ by KC BABY, Conny Nimmersjö sings his own lyrics. Jan Gradvall wrote in Dagens Industri: ‘In the clinical “2017–2022”, Conny Nimmersjö sings about a summer when they “suddenly were done with each other”, without a hint of bitterness.’ He gave the album a rating of four.

This is arguably the most powerful song ever written in the Swedish language about divorce. Additionally, the song has a memorable melody and arrangement. It is no exaggeration to suggest that ‘2017–2022’ will be considered a Swedish classic.
