Freda' (Swedish for Friday) is a pop group from Gnosjö in Sweden, first active from 1983-1993. Singer and songwriter Uno Svenningsson later tried with a solo career, before the band was re-united in 2009. The name comes from that they won a rock band competition on a Friday. The group, which broke through in 1986 with the song "Vindarna", received a Grammis Award in 1988.,[1] and again in 1990.
