ABBAquerque is a band first, tribute band incidentally. They make a study of the music of ABBA, and then add scenes from Shakespeare, summon men after midnight, add barbershop harmonies to classic disco hits, and bring energy to the party! ABBAquerque centers joy, love and glitter in their performances, inviting these qualities to arise in their audiences. Crowds sing along, a Christmas party turns into a high school slow dance, phone flashlights sway with ballads, children free style dance and everyone sings along!
