Universal Music Kids Partners with Katarina Ekstedt to Bring Vera & Ville to Life Through Music and Media
Universal Music Kids has entered a collaboration with Ville & Ville author and creator Katarina Ekstedt. This partnership aims to develop and launch the characters Vera & Ville to a whole new generation of young fans through music, audiobooks, and a YouTube channel.
Created by Katarina Ekstedt and brought to life with Lovisa Blomberg’s enchanting illustrations, Vera & Ville have already captured the hearts of children through their books and stories. This partnership with Universal Music Kids will expand their universe, delivering new content that enhances their adventures and lessons with music and accompanying media.
“It feels absolutely fantastic that Lovisa and I get to do this together with Universal Music Kids. The opportunity to take Vera & Ville further into the world through music and film so that even more children get to know them and discover their everyday adventures for the youngest is a dream come true for us,” says Katarina Ekstedt.
Universal Music Kids is equally enthusiastic about the collaboration and comments:
“We are very happy to work with Katarina Ekstedt, whose characters have a special place in children’s hearts. By combining our strengths in music production and media development, we will create a magical universe where music and learning go hand in hand. We look forward to spreading Vera & Ville’s positive message. The new collaboration will include music, audiobooks and a YouTube channel. The content will focus on themes such as friendship, courage, and curiosity, which reflects Katarina Ekstedt’s values ââand storytelling style.”
The first Vera & Ville audio stories and songs are now available on Spotify.
