PLATINUM - The Live ABBA Tribute Show

 

Having thrilled audiences throughout the world with their stunning tribute to one of the world's most successful acts, internationally acclaimed PLATINUM have firmly established themselves in the super-league of tribute entertainment.

 

PLATINUM - The Live ABBA Tribute Show

 

100% Pure ABBA Excitement!

 

Tribute bands have firmly established themselves as a regular part of the music scene. Many require a certain amount of imagination on behalf of the audience and some require that you suspend your critical faculties altogether! But when the London Evening Standard claim that one such tribute band, PLATINUM, are "better than the original" you know this ABBA Tribute Band must be something special!

"A spectacular, brilliantly choreographed, polished musical production of ABBA's greatest hits. There are many attempts to copy ABBA. Without a doubt this magical interpretation is the most authentic ABBA tribute you will ever see or hear!"
Russell Parrott - Racecourse Manager, Leicester Racecourse

 

PLATINUM - The Live ABBA Tribute Show

 

PLATINUM was formed as a 6-piece band in 1997 - under their original name of Platinum ABBA - with the sole aim of becoming the best "ABBA" tribute band in the World.

"At first glance I'm thinking 'that's the real ABBA'... but that's you!"

BBC Newsreader, Charlie Stayt, on seeing a clip of PLATINUM performing as he interviewed PLATINUM's 'Benny' live on BBC Breakfast TV

Individually, its musicians have toured and recorded with some of the biggest names in show business. Collectively, they are now making a name for themselves.

“The Festival favourite!!.... World class live concert …. you would be mad to miss them!!” Ballymena Arts Festival

With meticulous attention to every detail, they have combined stunning musicianship, authentic costumes, Abba-esque choreography and a suitable dose of tongue-in-cheek humour within an electrifying performance to produce a breathtaking LIVE ABBA Tribute Show that appeals to all ages.

"These guys are seriously good...you will be blown away; close your eyes and they could just be the real thing; lots of energy and fun and all live!  We will have them back, and our customers told us they were better than Bjorn Again." Paul Campbell, Hampton Pool

But the most important challenge to the band was to recreate the "ABBA" sound absolutely LIVE on stage, without resorting to hidden backing tapes and discs.  After all..... ABBA never used them, so why should an ABBA tribute!  PLATINUM were determined their audiences wouldn't be cheated with a glorified ABBA karaoke.

"The visual and vocal spectacular got off to a soaring start with ‘Lay all your Love on Me’ then ‘Mamma Mia’, by which time the audience were waving their arms in lusty tribute to the song that named the eponymous show and film. The first half drew to its close, with the band’s harder edge in the surprisingly rocky ‘On & On & On’, the taunting ‘So Long’ – “…you won’t have me tonight; alright, alright, alright…” trilled the girls – and the beautifully executed S.O.S. with a Hendrix quality guitar riff to usher in the interval. Perhaps this was a good time to reflect on the visual, vocal and musical spectacular that is PLATINUM with their immaculate costumes, step perfect routines and iconic Abba stances plus, most important of all, they play all of the music themselves. This is not some CD backed, Karaoke Abba tribute but a talented, dedicated band brilliantly reproducing the sound and style of a twentieth century popular music phenomenon. The musicians are all at the top of their game and the two girls epitomise that raunchy ‘girl next door’ allure that added ‘strictly Swedish’ to the lexicon of musical erotica.... An encore of the cheeky ‘Does Your Mother Know?’ and ‘Waterloo’ closed an evening that had flown by in a blur of happy familiarity and toe tapping pleasure. It was all written on the faces of the audience as they left; smiles, smiles, smiles."

John Hancock - Freelance Journalist - St Ives Guildhall

And they have succeeded.  Resulting in a show that delivers the kind of excitement and audience reaction only a LIVE ABBA Tribute Band can deliver. Just like the real ABBA!

"If I didn’t know better, I’d say I was in the awesome presence of ABBA!" Penny Dixon – HR Manager – Sybase UK Ltd.

Based in the UK, PLATINUM have not only won over discerning ABBA fans from close to home, but have responded to ever-increasing demand and taken their spectacular ABBA tribute show around the world as word of their perfectionism spreads.

"PLATINUM are one of the very best tribute acts currently touring the theatres. I say this with knowledge, because as a theatre manager, I see many different tributes to many different artists. PLATINUM stand out because not only are they as close to the real thing as you could get, but they actually play their own instruments, and very well too. The whole show, from the set up through to the actual performance pays such attention to detail that one feels that this group are presenting the show especially for you and that your venue is the only one that they really want to play. That is the sign of true professionals. They will definitely be back...." Charlie North Lewis - General Manager, Tivoli Theatre

PLATINUM perform at theatres, festivals, corporate events, private parties, weddings, casinos, colleges & universities, as well as making TV & radio appearances.  Their tribute to ABBA has been embraced by people of all ages and from all walks of life. They are equally at home headlining festivals and performing in front of thousands of demanding "ABBA" fans as they are playing at more intimate, private events such as birthday parties and weddings, where their sole aim is to make someone's "special day" VERY special! In doing so, they have built a reputation for excellence and are considered by many agents and production companies as the best ABBA tribute act available today.

"It was as close to Eurovision Brighton 1974 as we were ever going to get.  Excellent." Paul King - Events Organiser - Bromley Civic Halls

With their energetic and accurate tribute to ABBA, they continue to win over fans and clients alike, setting higher and higher standards for other ABBA tribute bands to follow, as the PLATINUM phenomenon goes from strength to strength.

"You certainly set the place on fire last night, everybody but just everybody were on their feet dancing. The whole town is talking about the great atmosphere, and how much they loved your act, so from me personally, Padsow Rotary, and Padstow, many many thanks. You were also so easy to work with, which was a blessing for me, and the committee. Hope to see you all again sometime." Peter Tamblin – Padstow Rotary Club

PLATINUM provide productions carefully tailored to their clients' specific requirements. Whether a 4K or 40K PA system, simple lights or state-of-the-art intelligent lighting rig, their experienced crew ensure the best sound and vision for each particular event. They'll even provide the stage, if necessary! From small marquees to massive concert halls... they've done it all. Nothing is too big or small.

“Pampered Chef Directors salute you guys - you gave us the best Conference event ever! Amazing!” Pampered Chef Directors

“What a great show!!  The atmosphere was great and the live performance was out of this world!  We have seen various ABBA tribute bands at a few venues around the UK and can honestly say that PLATINUM are the best, most honest to the music and the performance.  Simply a band not to be missed....”     Tivoli Theatre 2015, Wimborne

And, for extra peace of mind, the band come complete with up to £10,000,000 worth of Public Liability Insurance at no extra cost!

"We all had a brilliant time and the band were excellent! We could have had them on all night and still have been shouting for more! They were very friendly and chatty too. Please thank them for us. We've never had the dance floor so packed!"

Elaine Newell - DAF Trucks

 

Beware of Imitations!

PLATINUM perform absolutely LIVE as a 6-piece band.

In a market where the majority of ABBA tribute bands try to cover a lack of musicianship by miming or performing "live" over pre-recorded tracks, PLATINUM guarantee they do it for real... producing the kind of excitement & spontaneous interaction with the audience only a genuinely live band can deliver.

If an ABBA tribute claim to perform "live" with less than 6 members, you might like to ask them who's playing the bass and drums!
