FRIDAY, 6 MARCH BIRD’S BASEMENT Book Tickets Here

Featuring Susie and Jacqui from BABBA. DOORS 6:00 SHOW 7:30

Olivia Newton-John and Karen Carpenter were great friends, but never got the chance to sing together. Susie King and Jacqui Hamilton (BABBA) bring that “what if” to life giving audiences the duet moments we all wish had happened in their new show “SING”. Join Susie & Jacqui and their 6 piece band as they deliver Olivia & Karen favourites with soaring harmonies, plenty of heart, and their signature onstage chemistry.

“SING” The OliviaKaren show.

Jacqui and Susie have been a dynamic duo, headlining the iconic Melbourne Abba tribute band Babba since the early 2000s til present day.

Over these two decades they have brewed their special chemistry of fun and honed their love of singing together in perfect harmony to a level that is a joy to behold. Their particular style of repartee is one that can only be born from many years spent travelling and performing together. As they say “We have now come to share one brain” They arrive at a venue near you to share their favourite Olivia Newton John and Karen Carpenter songs. 2025 saw the beginning of their brand new show “SING” that has sold out to every venue they’ve played. This show is a special treat for these two powerful pop girls and if you cry with laughter or with raw emotion for the beauty of the vocals they bring to the stage, don’t be surprised.

Susie King and Jacqui Hamilton present the songs and stories of Olivia Newton John and Karen Carpenter. This show is a cavalcade of the hits of these two wonderful performers. Susie and Jacqui will talk about their connection with Olivia and Karen both musically and personally. They will also invite the audience to join in and make this a very special, unique event for the long weekend.

Joined by an illustrious, femme heavy, powerhouse band that includes:

Craig Schneider – Keys and Vocals

Annette Yates – Bass

Sonja Horbelt – Drums

Craig Fermanis – Guitars

Mia Barham – Flute & Sax

Gabriella Favretto – Backing Vocals

BABBA – ABBA’S GREATEST HITS

The World’s Most Loved & Authentic ABBA Show

Molly Meldrum: “Dare I say it – as good as ABBA.”

“That was pretty good!” ABBA’s Benny Andersson.

For 30 years, BABBA has been thrilling audiences across Australia and the world with their dazzling tribute to 70s supergroup ABBA.

From Waterloo to Dancing Queen, this 2-hour concert spectacular features all the iconic hits, glittering costumes, and Swedish charm that defined a generation.

What began in a Richmond pub in 1994 has become a national treasure — a joyous, high-energy celebration of music, memories, and pure pop perfection.

More than just a tribute, BABBA captures the spirit of ABBA with musical precision and heartfelt nostalgia. Audiences sing along, dance in the aisles, and relive the magic of a time when flares were high and harmonies higher.

Babba in the only ABBA tribute band in the world to have performed for Benny Andersson of ABBA which happened in Hong Kong in Dec 2019. One of our most memorable nights ever!! A huge honour and endorsement of the quality of this act.
