Avicii, who is popular for his songs like "Wake Me Up" and "Hey Brother", and four other musicians, Robyn, First Aid Kit, producer Max Martin and Seinabo Sey, are to be featured in postage stamps to be released on January 15 in Sweden by joint Danish and Swedish postal service Postnord.
"Being on a stamp is really awesome, and also very surreal. It's not something people expect to happen! We're planning to send a letter to our beloved grandfather in Hampetorp - he'll be surprised for sure," said First Aid Kit in a press release. Sey, who probably is mostly known for her soulful song "Hard Time", also shared her excitement. "It's a very good mix of artists and it's a huge honor to be included," she said.
First Aid Kit, which comprises of Klara and Johanna Soderberg, is a folk duo who is popular for their songs such as "Emmylou" and "My Silver Lining". Martin, meanwhile, is known for writing Britney Spears' "Baby One More Time" and most recently Taylor Swift's "Shake It Off".
