Albuquerque’s premier ABBA tribute band is dripping with glitter and fabbalous gold-lined sonic joy that will make you the dancing queen 🪩

Dr. Jaguar Bashwiner (on keys as Benny), Ingela Onstad (Agneta/vocals), Christiana Cook (Anni-Frid/vocals), and Jared Putnam (on guitar as Björn) represent ABBA’s namesake players and are joined by Blythe Crawford (bass) and Jackie Chacón (drums). When the stars align, the group is joined by a three part saxophone section: Matt Lind Michael Christmas and Miguel Filerio.

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!
