'Story of a Heart' is an album which returns to the musical roots of ABBA legend Benny Andersson. For the past 20 years he has been leading The Benny Andersson Band, a group of 16 exceptional musicians and singers who share his passion for the Swedish folk tradition, not to mention big band, Bach, polka, waltzes, Celtic folk, Fifties standards, and straight-ahead pop music. The latter is showcased on the title track, the first new pop composition written by Benny with his ABBA song writing partner Björn Ulvaeus in 15 years.

Vocal duties on this, and three of the four other tracks translated into English for the first time, are taken by the Swedish star Helen Sjöholm, who meet the Abba legends when she played the title role in their musical "Kristina fran Duvemala'. The fourteen track album captures highlights from the three albums released in Sweden by The Benny Andersson Band - or Benny Anderssons Orkester as they are known there - along with some brand new tracks.
