GIMME GIMME GIMME
At Sky
City Starlight Symphony 2002, four unsuspecting kiwi singers donned tight
white polyester flares and silly wigs to perform a medley of ABBA’s greatest hits and 200,000 people went wild! Having unleashed a
torrent of Abbamania, this stunned and stunning quartet felt compelled to
ride the wave and form ABBAlicious; a loving tribute to the one and only
Swedish super-group.
It’s a
tough job Stig, but Jackie Clarke, Keri Harper, Chris Powley and
Craig Muller are up to it!
In the
stressful hurly burly that is the noughties, ABBAlicious is a musical
escape to a simpler time and place where sugar pop, 100% synthetic
costumes and cheesy choreography rule!
ABBAlicious sing and dance their way through a 90-minute show of ABBA’s
greatest hits. All the classics are there; Dancing Queen, Waterloo,
Mamma Mia and Fernando. Not only that, the ABBAlicious show includes tasty
rare treats from the ABBA songbook and songs ABBA might have covered if
that messy thing called divorce hadn’t entered the picture!
ABBAlicious’ career highlights so far include appearances at the 2004
Porirua Festival of the Elements, the 2003 NBR Stadium Spectacular and the
Queenstown Winter Festival 2002.
Let them make your function
their next career highlight!

Knowing Me Knowing
You
Jackie Clarke
Star sign: Aries
Favourite Abba song: Knowing Me Knowing You because Frida
finally got a solo in that one.
On her
eleventh birthday, all of Jackie’s Abba fantasies came true when she
received Abba Arrival the album, an Abba Annual, an Abba tee shirt and
tickets to see Abba the movie! A devout Frida fan, she also thinks
Benny is the cutest and never believed the wife swapping rumours. In
her spare time away from ABBAlicious Jackie sings, acts and has made
an exhibition of herself in bands like When the Cat’s Been Spayed,
shows like Mum’s the Word and events like Coca-Cola Christmas in the
Park.
Keri Harper
Star sign:
Pisces
Favourite Abba song: Fernando because it’s got the words
‘bugle’ and ‘cannon’ in it and not many pop songs can boast that.
Barely
old enough to experience the joys of ABBA the first time round; Keri
can still appreciate their retro styling and esteemed place in pop
history. Keri is a bonafide blonde bombshell with a golden voice and
sparkling stage presence, so who better to fill the platform boots of
Agnetha Faltskog? Keri loves Agnetha’s voice and 70’s outfits but
draws the line at the uber mullet! Keri experienced the whirlwind of
pop mega stardom first hand during her days with kiwi pop sensations ‘TrueBliss’.
Craig Muller
Star sign:
Sagittarius
Favourite Abba song: Waterloo because it combines his two
favourite passions – catchy pop tunes and 19th century European
military history…don’t get stuck talking to this guy at a party!
Every
Abba tribute act needs it’s own thespian to make sure the blue eye
shadow is applied in an authentic 70s way and ABBAlicious has Craig
Muller, a graduate of Toi Whakaari New Zealand Drama School (how’s
that for flash eh?). Craig’s a talented actor, dancer and singer with
oodles of TV drama and theatre credits. To name drop just a few, he’s
appeared in Spin Doctors, Shortland Street and Xena, as well as
performing at the countries leading professional theatres - Sweeney
Todd at Downstage, The Wind in the Willows for the Auckland Theatre
Company and Blue Sky Boys at The Court. And now he’s pouring himself
into a pair of tight white flares for the entertainment and amusement
of us all! What a pro!
Chris Powley
Star sign:
Sagittarius
Favourite Abba song: The Winner Takes it All because it’s
soooooo true.
Rounding out the blue-eyed blonde contingent of ABBAlicious is Chris
Powley. Like Benny, Chris is a self-taught musician who’s learnt the
ins and outs of the business in the glare of the spotlight. At the
tender age of 28 Chris is already a veteran performer who started out
at age 9 singing in the famous Lou and Simon show. He’s performed
alongside the likes of Diamond Lil’, Maria Dallas and John Rowles and
has toured internationally to Japan, Singapore, Australia and
throughout the Pacific, in fact just about everywhere except Sweden!
He’s performed country music in Tamworth, disco in Samoa and Poi E the
Musical with the Patea Maori Club. |
