Her debut album, Vatten och bröd (2006), proved to be commercial success and resulted in Maggio winning a Grammi for "Årets nykomling" (Newcomer of the Year).

[1] Veronica Sandra Karin Maggio[2] was born on 15 March 1981 in Uppsala, Sweden,[3] to a Swedish mother and an Italian father.

"[6] On 26 March 2008, Maggio released another album – Och vinnaren är... (And the Winner Is...), which she wrote and recorded together with Oskar Linnros.

In 2010 Maggio worked with Petter on his new single "Längesen" (Long Time ago) from his album "En räddare i nöden" (A saviour when in need).

On 4 October 2013, Maggio released her fourth album, Handen i fickan fast jag bryr mig, with production from Salem Al Fakir, Vincent Pontare and Magnus Lidehäll.

[10] Critics described the song as Maggio's trademark sound: summery pop with light synth and retro-soul references, combined with relatable lyrics.

[12] On 17 March 2016, Maggio released the title track as the first single from her fifth album, Den första är alltid gratis (The First One is Always Free).

[15] On 22 March 2019, Maggio released "Kurt Cobain" as the first single from her sixth studio album, Fiender är tråkigt (Enemies are Boring).

[18] In June 2019, Maggio launched her summer tour with three consecutive nights at Stockholm's Gröna Lund, breaking audience records with a total of 51,000 people in attendance.

[19] On 28 May 2021, "Se mig" was released as the first single from Maggio's seventh album Och som vanligt händer det något hemskt.

Maggio described the song as having a mood of "longing to explode and feel great emotions again", with a new perspective as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

[19] On 18 June 2021, Maggio released the song "Nu stannar vi på marken" in coordination with the SJ campaign of the same name aiming to encourage environmentally-friendly travel.

[20] Through autumn 2021, Maggio released the singles "Varsomhelst/Närsomhelst" and "På en buss" in promotion of the upcoming album, Och som vanligt händer det något hemskt.

While these themes had drawn criticism on Fiender är tråkigt as unrepresentative of Maggio's age, Och som vanligt händer det något hemskt was praised for showing deeper self-awareness and genuineness.

Aftonbladet highlighted the thematic difference from Maggio's previous work, with the focus shifted from her own feelings to apologising to the person left behind.

[27] On 20 October 2023, Maggio released a cover of Håkan Hellström's single "Det kommer aldrig vara över för mig" as part of ten-year anniversary celebrations of the album of the same.

[28] Her version of the song debuted atop the Swedish singles chart, remaining there for two consecutive weeks and bettering the number two peak of Hellström's original.
