Despite worldwide success, A*Teens disbanded in 2004 and Lumholdt took a short break from the limelight.
In September 2005, Lumholdt landed a voice-over part in the Swedish release of Electronic Arts racing game, Burnout: Revenge. She also booked a couple of gigs in local sports club, Ballbreaker, singing the Swedish national anthem for the World Cup Championship in 2006. Since late 2005, Lumholdt has been working with local Swedish producers and song writers, as well as producers in New York City and Los Angeles on her solo debut tracks. On 14 March 2007, using the stage name "Sara Love", she released a cover of Olivia Newton-John's hit, "Physical" for a promotional CD for clothing company WeSC, on their album Let's Get Physical with WeSC.
In early 2008, she released several new tracks, including "Glamour Bitch" featuring Milano Money. The song was first released on her MySpace profile, and was quickly picked up by NRJ radio and became the Smash Hit of the Week. The single debuted at No. 57 on the Swedish Single Charts for the week of 13 September 2007.[1] In 2011 she participated in Melodifestivalen 2011, singing the song "Enemy", finished 7th in the third semi-final on 19 February.[2]
In addition to singing, Lumholdt also works as a pole dancing instructor.[3] She performed a routine at the 2011 North European Pole Dance Championship.[4]
Lumholdt spent February to May 2008 in Los Angeles, writing and recording songs with Josh Skinner, with the help of Grammy award winning producer Ted Perlman. In June she released a pop song titled "First". Lumholdt said about the song that "it's about putting yourself first, it's about self-esteem".[5] The team also wrote songs titled "Where does the love go", and "Kiss me Goodbye". Lumholdt has been connecting with her fans through YouTube[6] videos with Josh Skinner and Ted Perlman in the studio.
