Arvingarna was founded in 1989, following the members earlier having played heavy metal, without any major successes. The band's name ("The heirs") refers to the group member's parents, who also were active in dansbands. Arvingarna plays a form of dansband music that is it inspired by pop music and rock music, and has also being described as a boyband.

The band has competed in the Swedish Melodifestivalen in 1993, 1995, 1999, 2002, 2019 and 2021.

In 2019 they participated in Melodifestivalen 2019 with the song "I Do", where they placed 7th in the final scoring 64 points. The band returned two years later and participated in Melodifestivalen 2021 with the song "Tänker inte alls gå hem" taking part in the first heat on 6 February 2021 where they qualified directly for the finale. The finale was held on 13 March 2021 at the Annexet in Stockholm. Arvingarna finished 9th in the final with a total of 44 points.

This was tipped to win on the night, but it wasn't to be, it is a fabulous pop song and only managed 7th place on the night.

See what you think.

Enjoy.
