About this Event
With hits like "Dancing Queen," "Mamma Mia," and "The Winner Takes It All," ABBA is one of the most beloved bands of all time. Dr. Mike Daley Presents: The ABBA Story is a concert and talk celebrating their lives and music, featuring renowned music historian Dr. Mike Daley on guitar and vocals, Laurel Tubman on vocals and percussion, Mike Ferfolia on bass and vocals, Suba Sankaran on vocals and percussion, and Jill Daley on piano and violin.
You'll learn about Agnetha, Björn, Benny and Anna-Frid's early days on the Swedish pop scene and their emergence as global pop stars in the 1970s, with over 400 million records sold. Their uplifting, tuneful music remains popular to this day and has spawned countless spin-offs, from hit movies to hologram tours. The latest in a monthly series that has included sold-out lecture-concerts on David Bowie, Billy Joel, Gordon Lightfoot, Tina Turner and the Beach Boys, Dr. Mike Daley Presents: The ABBA Story is a must-see for any music fan.
