Charlotte Jean "Lotta" Hedlund (born March 10, 1944 as Charlotte Jean Butler) is an African-American singer who has been living in Sweden since the late 1960s. ==Life and career== She started her career in the girlgroup Sherrys.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Love Across Borders )〕 The Sherrys toured Sweden with Swedish rock singer Jerry Williams, and after one of the gigs they met up with Hep Stars, Sweden's most successful group of the 1960s. One of the members was Benny Andersson (later of ABBA fame), another was Sven "Svenne" Hedlund - and they got romantically involved. She joined her husband by becoming a member of Hep Stars and later as a singer duo Svenne & Lotta in the 1970s, called "Sven & Charlotte" in certain countries. Svenne & Lotta competed in the Swedish heats for Eurovision Song Contest, Melodifestivalen, in 1975, with a song penned by the men of ABBA, called "Bang en boomerang", and also recorded the song in English and had a hit in several European countries with "Bang a boomerang". ABBA later covered the song as an album track. Svenne & Lotta went to become one of the best selling groups of all times in Denmark, and even recorded a single in Danish. Lotta and her family live in Sävsjö in Småland in southern Sweden. Both she and her husband are still touring Sweden as a duo as well as solo artists, and are considered a cult act. 〔(ABBA - Who )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lotta Hedlund」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
