supporting LIONEL RICHIE at India's IPL
competition -- will arrive in to New Zealand early next week
for a 11-city tour.
Kiwis are being urged to pull their best jumpsuits and platforms out of retirement for these ABBAsolutely fabulous shows.
They're not a copy of Abba nor a tribute band. Those unlucky enough not to have seen BJORN AGAIN in action before, be prepared for a rollicking good night of ABBA humour and music.
"Björn Again are maybe the most
entertaining live rock show in the world today" - Time Out,
New York, USA
5000 concerts in 70
countries
DRESS UP
& JOIN
THE
PARTY!
Established in Melbourne in 1988 by 2 research scientists, BJORN AGAIN have performed sellout tours to critical acclaim in over 70 countries worldwide.
BJORN AGAIN delivers the highest quality and most entertaining ABBA show. As well as presenting the ABBA look and sound to perfection, with all the authentic costumes and makeup, hi-tech production, staging and lighting effects, there is a cheeky dose of parody, satire and on-stage theatrics that all combines to create a lot of fun and excitement for any audience and an hysterical response. No doubt this is helped by everyone knowing all the songs and words! The Björn Again concept in many ways is unique, and its career and global success fascinating.
Most notably, BJORN AGAIN is the only ABBA show endorsed by all members of ABBA, who have publicly praised and supported the band over many years. Very recently Björn Ulvaues stated on TV that he LOVES the name and thinks BJORN AGAIN are a lot of fun. It is interesting to note that Björn also credits Björn Again with initiating the ABBA revival of the early 90s.
ABBA were one of the biggest pop acts in the 70s, but their appeal has grown far larger since they disbanded in 1983, due to a number of progressive factors: the release of ABBA GOLD in 92, the 2 Australian films Muriels Wedding and Priscilla Queen of The Desert (both featuring ABBA songs), the popularity of Mamma Mia! The Musical, and more recently the massive global success of Mamma Mia!
The Movie, starring Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan. But, as acknowledged by the music and media industries, including a leading UK journalist, and ABBA themselves, this has all been helped along by Björn Again providing a highly entertaining live ABBA experience constantly since 1989.
"From the note-perfect vocals to the faux-Swedish
accents and sequined duds, Björn Again Fabulously
flawless" - Rolling Stone Magazine, USA
BJORN
AGAIN'S career highlights over 20 years are
many.
They have performed Money Money Money to Bill Gates, Take A Chance On Me to Tom Jones, Ring Ring to Russell Crowe, Rock Me to Metallica, SuperTrouper to Kurt Cobain, SOS to Mr Bean (Rowan Atkinson), and Dancing Queen to royals Andrew and Fergie. They have played Wembley Stadium, The Sydney Opera House, The Royal Albert Hall and at the Glastonbury Music Festival.
BJORN AGAIN is without doubt an incredible success story and especially intriguing due to the fact it is a tribute act that has become a major international touring entity in its own right and captured the imagination of the world.
BJORN AGAIN are so much fun they've played they've been enlisted by a who's who of the music and entertainment world including Cher, Shania Twain, Rod Steward, Bon Jovi, Cliff Richard and even Bill Gates to perform for them.
With the dawn of the Mamma Mia! phenomenon, generations of new fans have emerged and platform-wearing groupies the world over just can't get enough of BJORN AGAIN. They are the ultimate ABBA experience!
