Established in Melbourne in 1988 by 2 Melbourne engineers, Björn Again have become the most successful tribute band of all time and one of Australia’s most popular musical exports, having performed sellout tours in over 70 countries. Just last December, Björn Again were VERY SPECIAL GUESTS at KYLIE MINOGUE’S New Year’s Eve concert at Wembley in London. Björn Again have also met Benny and Björn of ABBA in Sweden and continue to be happily endorsed by them.
 
Why the incredible success and huge global appeal? Well there is more to Björn Again than a band pumping out ABBA’s hits, dressing up in platform shoes and flares and speaking in ‘Swenglish’. It’s no use describing it here – you need to be in the audience to really get it.
 
Sometimes it becomes an evening of working out popular music and culture and finally acknowledging that ABBA were really that good. For some it is a wind back to their childhood days, for others it’s a pure escape, but at the very least it is a heck of a lot of fun.
 
Did you know that Björn Again have performed MONEY MONEY MONEY live in front Bill Gates, TAKE A CHANCE ON ME to Tom Jones, THE WINNER TAKES IT ALL to Russell Crowe, THANK YOU FOR THE MUSIC to Metallica, ROCK ME to Kurt Cobain & Nirvana, SOS to Rowan “Mr Bean” Atkinson, and DANCING QUEEN to royals Andrew and Fergie.
 
Even Madonna’s entourage hassled to get her name on the doorlist at a New York show and Robert Plant of led Zeppelin is an un-ashamable adoring BA fan. The list goes on.
 
“FANS HAD BETTER MAKE THE MOST OF BJÖRN AGAIN BECAUSE IT’S THE
CLOSEST THEY ARE GOING TO GET TO SEEING ABBA.
ABBA WILL NEVER REFORM!” Benny Andersson of ABBA, Capital Radio London, ‘99
