“Abba Fever - the five piece band who bring party time to the music of Abba. Here at Encore, we have consistently booked the band for the past five years to play our Corporate Events functions as well as Christmas party nights across North East England and Yorkshire.
Such is the popularity of Abba Fever and the quality of their show that we are unashamedly selfish in acquiring runs of dates for almost the entire month of December to play at Hotels and function rooms where we have promotional representation.
Waterloo, Dancing Queen, The Winner Takes It All, Does Your Mother Know, Thank You For The Music..... the list is endless and this is one dose of fever for which our customers return year after year.”
Andy Jones, Encore
