Abba by Bjorn Again

Hire Abba Tribute Act Bjorn Again Through E3 Artists

Björn Again was created in 1988 by Melbournians Rod Leissle and John Tyrrell who oversee all of the group`s global touring activities and occasionally play in the band. After Björn Again`s first show at a small pub in Melbourne called The Tote on May 6th 1989 the band`s popularity increased quickly, which took them Australia-wide then overseas to international critical acclaim. The band is now regarded as the most successful tribute band ever and one of Australia`s most successful musical exports. This tribute band has become so successful that as of 2007 there are five Björn Agains performing in various parts of the world. Björn Again originate from Australia, and have been touring since 1989.

Björn Again take a very light-hearted approach to their portrayal of ABBA. While keeping pretty faithful to the songs themselves, the rest of the act is something of a send-up or parody. The group talk among themselves and to the audience in a faux-Swedish accent, and have stage names which resemble the group`s original names in a humorous way: Agnetha Falstart, Benny Anderwear, Frida Longstokin and Björn Volvo-us. The band is supported by bassist Rutger Sonofagunn and drummer Ola Drumkitt.

Björn Again have also occasionally covered songs by other artists. When Erasure produced an EP of ABBA covers called Abba-esque, Björn Again responded with an EP of covers of Erasure songs done in the style of Abba, called Erasure-ish. The EP included the song A Little Respect which achieved Number 25 on the UK charts in September 1992.

The band has performed at many of the big rock festivals world-wide including Reading and Glastonbury, plus has sold out shows at The Royal Albert Hall and Wembley Arena in London, The State Theatre in Sydney, the SECC in Glasgow Scotland and Irving Plaza in New York. The band are also in high demand for private shows having played at parties for top UK golfer Colin Montgomerie, Microsoft`s Bill Gates, comedian Rowan Atkinson, and at Russell Crowe`s Wedding in Australia in 2003 which made world headlines.
