Totally Stockholm swung by Popaganda this week, and man did we have fun. Eriksdalbadet was soaked in sunshine over the course of the weekend, and the festival hosted some outstanding performances from top-class Swedish and international bands. Robyn made dancing obligatory for the attendees as she debuted her La Bagatelle Magique project with a little help from Maluca. Amason charmed the audience with a dreamy cover of ‘I Want To Know What Love Is’. Mapei (our cover star last month) played a storming set, effortlessly improvising and ad-libbing, including a shout-out to the T-Bana that went down well with the crowd. And MØ, who’s rising at such speed these days that full-on megastardom is surely only a matter of time, blew everyone’s minds with her hit collaboration with Major Lazer, ‘Lean On’. Check out some photos from the weekend below.
The sun shines down on Popaganda.
Just because Popaganda’s on doesn’t mean Eriksdalbadet has to stop functioning as a swimming pool.
And there was a synchronised swimming performance, but what self-respecting festival wouldn’t have one?
MØ wows the crowd on the smaller stage.
The sun sets on an exciting weekend.
