Celebrating ABBA today ABBADELUXE brings the sound of the 70s to the present day. No Eurovision Song Contest goes by without a look back at ABBA, one of the greatest bands of the last century, whose success story at this competition began in 1974 with “Waterloo”. ABBA songs like Fernando, S.O.S, Mamma Mia or Dancing Queen became global hits and still today their music inspires lovers of nostalgia as well as young fans. More than 40 years later, the tribute band ABBADELUXE has succeeded in performing this sound so convincingly that the original would hardly sound better. Success in front of an audience of millions In keeping with the motto “Celebrating ABBA today” Frank Weise (Benny), Katy Summer (Anni- Frid), Michelle Cleave (Agnetha) and Steve Bryden (Björn) bring the legendary Swedish bands big hits to the present. And the four musicians know what they are doing, because together they can look back on over 100 years of experience with ABBA. As performers in the biggest stage shows like ABBAMANIA they have already inspired millions of people all over the world, whether in Paris, London or New York. “ABBADELUXE is the best ABBA cover band in the world” Today they are not only interested in covering ABBA, but also in staging the brilliant compositions with new arrangements in a contemporary way for the current musical taste. That ABBADELUXE is one of the really great interpreters of Agnetha, Benny, Björn and Anni-Frid is also the conclusion of the most important fan club ABBA-Intermezzo, which rates ABBADELUXE as “the best ABBA cover band worldwide”. In short: You shouldn't miss an appearance of the band, which apart from Frank Weise travels from England for the shows, by the way!

CGT Abba Book AW
ABBA Original Sweden issue: Polar Music POLS 262, released April 21, 1975. First UK release: Epic EPC 80835, June 7, 1975 EW WOULD DISPUTE THE ARGUMENT THAT THIS ALBUM WAS THE F first wherein Abba became truly recognisable as Abba. There were hints of what was to come in the highlights on Ring Ring and Waterloo,but this was the first album to feature the soon-to-be-famous multi-layered Abba sound throughout.With one or two exceptions, it was also clear that the group had identified their strengths and their weaknesses, and reached some kind of understanding of what they really wanted to accomplish with their music. Although the finished album oozed confidence, Abba’s status in the international music world was actually a bit shaky when sessions started on August 22, 1974 (the studios used for the album were Glen Studio and Metronome Studio) and were even shakier when sessions finally concluded in March 1975. At the very least, this was the situation in the UK, which they regarded as the home of pop music and where, accordingly, they felt it was most important for them to succeed. The problem was an image tainted through having won the Eurovision Song Contest, which was widely derided for lacking integrity. “Groups like ours that had been tagged as ‘Eurovision’ were not meant to have more than one hit,”recalled Björn. The remixed ‘Ring Ring’ single, released as a follow-up to ‘Waterloo’, reached no higher than 32 on the UK chart. Then, in November 1974 when Abba released the first single from the current album sessions,‘So Long’,it tanked completely, failing to register on the chart.

Music of ABBAMANIA Grows on Pitmedden Garden Audience
NATIONAL TRUST FOR SCOTLAND MEDIA RELEASE XX July, 2017 Music of ABBAMANIA Grows on Pitmedden Garden Audience With over 40,000 different types of plants in bloom this summer, Pitmedden Garden is more than used to hosting colourful spectacles. But nothing could prepare the historic country house for the vivid display of lycra and sequins worn by ABBAMANIA – the world’s longest-running ABBA tribute concert. As classic hits like Waterloo and Dancing Queen ring out from the stage and the scent of honeysuckle and jasmine wafts through the air, the captivating show on Saturday, July 29 will be a true assault on the senses. The elegant renaissance garden in Aberdeenshire, which is now managed by the National Trust for Scotland, will be one of the more unusual venues that ABBAMANIA has graced. However, it’s a stage that the band members have been looking forward to all summer – and one which they believe the original line-up of Agnetha Fältskog, Björn Ulvaeus, Benny Andersson, and Anni-Frid Lyngsta would have loved. Scots singer Sharon Fehlberg – who has the alter ego of Anni-Frid – says, “We have performed there once before and it is an absolutely fantastic venue. We were lucky enough to have beautiful weather, so fingers crossed the sun will shine for us again. “People still love the music of ABBA after all these years because they created timeless pop songs. You just don’t get music like that now. “The film and stage show Mamma Mia has introduced a new generation to their music, but we have always seen people of different ages in our audience, from five-year-olds to grandparents.

TRANSMEDIA INFLUENCE on the AFTERLIFE of ABBA Anna
THE WINNER TAKES IT ALL: TRANSMEDIA INFLUENCE ON THE AFTERLIFE OF ABBA Anna Christian TC 660H Plan II Honors Program The University of Texas at Austin 15 May 2019 ____________________________________ Kathryn Fuller-Seeley, Ph.D. Department of Radio-Television-Film Supervising Professor ____________________________________ Neil Nehring, Ph.D. Department of English Second Reader Abstract Author: Anna Christian Title: The Winner Takes It All: Transmedia Influence on the Afterlife of ABBA Supervising Professors: Kathryn Fuller-Seeley, Neil Nehring In an entertainment industry saturated with competing texts, media scholar Henry Jenkins maintains transmedia storytelling as an economic imperative. From ABBA’s inception in the 1970s to its contemporary revivals, the band’s irresistible pop anthems have achieved a level of international staying power comparable only to that of the Beatles, due in large part to the music’s multimedia presence. ABBA, with its kitsch fashion and distinctive melodies, emerged from an era that was captivated by the British Invasion and was prone to “disco demolitions.” Yet over the years it has managed to find a way into the narratives of movies, musicals, and drag performances alike. How does this mass, cultural co-opting contribute to ABBA’s enduring fame? Further, can the band’s unique business acumen—a trait responsible for an ever-expanding fandom by way of museums, musicals, video games, and virtual concerts—serve as a model for modern immersive music experiences? Sociocultural analysis provides reasoning for the band’s early reception (and rejection) by international audiences, while historical research may clarify a precedent for finding success out of the Swedish music industry.
