UK pop tracks go Stateside with Swedes

Swedish girl group Play are targeting the US with covers of British songs, including Atomic Kitten's 'Whole Again', as Sony prioritises them.

British songwriters might be getting some chart success in the US – but not via British bands. Swedish girl group Play are targeting the US market with a cover version of Atomic Kitten's 'Whole Again', having already recorded versions of Liberty X's 'Just A Little' and Billie Piper's 1999 hit 'Honey To The Bee'.

Play are a global priority for Sony just now meaning the British penned songs could enjoy real success over there – even if the UK artists who originally sang them struggle to get a US following.
