The creative collaboration between Swedish artist/producer Avicii and Volvo Cars for their new brand campaign features a reworking of the classic song Feeling Good. Filmed on location in Stockholm and Osterlen, southern Sweden, the video visits places of personal significance for Avicii and tells his own story of renewal, following several years of hard touring. The video also features members of his family and close friends.
“In the past six years I have been on a never-ending tour, apart for the last nine months during my time-out. I did around 325 shows in a year with traveling on top of that. It couldn’t continue. In the end I had to re-evaluate my situation and change my lifestyle. Sweden is an important place to me, it’s where I gather my strength and energy with family and friends. This whole process of re-evaluation and renewal is what Volvo encouraged me to visualise in the video. I think we did a great job together,” said Avicii.

MAMMA MIA! You can’t say it without an exclamation point and you can’t say it without smiling. Two simple words of this famous Italian expression sum up a world of emotion, from celebration to exasperation. It’s bold, it’s fun and it captures a life filled with character, and now there’s a wine to match. Available nationwide this summer, Mamma Mia introduces Mamma Mia Red Blend and Mamma Mia White Blend, wines to share around crowded tables filled with family, friends, laughter and—and of course, delicious food.
Mamma Mia wines boast Italian roots, Vino d’Italia, so all of the fruit for the wines is sourced from Italian vineyards. The wines are made and bottled in Puglia, Italy, located in the heel of Italy’s boot, by Winemaker Davide Sarcinella who has been making Italian wines since 2000. Creating exceptional wines from both international and local varietals, these wines are characterized by Sarcinella’s vast and unparalleled experiences throughout Chianti and Puglia. In Mamma Mia wines, he strives to make intense, but never too heavy, silky reds and excitingly fresh whites that express the individual personality of the fruit from which they are created.

South Padre is never out of visitors and witnesses a good number of them coming even during other parts of the year. The popularity of spring break South Padre Island makes visiting this destination until reservations are made for lodging facilities well ahead of time. During the other parts of the year hotel and lodging rates are considerably low in comparison to other beach areas.
