MANILA, Philippines - Thank ABBA for the music, we now have a reason to dance, jive, and have the time of our lives. ABBAMania, touted as the original ABBA tribute band is set for another show at Newport Performing Arts Theater, Resorts World Manila on Apri 29, the last of their seven-day live concert shows.
The Philippine tour features Ross Taberner as Bjorn, Nyree Burt as Ann-Frid or Frida, Steven Henry Scott as Benny and Ewa Scott as Agnetha. They will be backed up by vocalists Maireed Susan McBride and Elaine Gray, bass guitarist Scott Robertson Clark and drummer Scott (Reverend of Rhythm) Burrel.
