Over a 17 year career, The Flaming Sambucas have entertained overseas for many international conferences, as well as playing for many national events throughout Australia (including performing at the Adelaide “Carols by Candlelight 2001 and 2002” and at the 2003 “Barossa under the Stars” before the Sir Cliff Richard concert. “Queensland Tourism” is a regular client on The Flaming Sambucas’ calendar. They have had the pleasure of sharing the entertainment line-up with such performers as Wendy Mathews, John Farnham, Bachelor Girl, Jimmy Barnes. Also, adding to it’s achievements, the “2 girl / 2 boy” line-up entertained on The Superstar Virgo Cruise liner for Clipsal in February 2005, which cruised from Singapore to Phuket just after the Tsunami.
With a vast repertoire of fun party songs from the 60’s 70’s and 80’s (i.e.songs by Meatloaf, Abba, Village People, B52s, ACDC, Queen) and also from the top 40 – (ie Robbie Williams, Kylie, Jet, Scissor Sisters and Pink) the band prides itself on always creating an exciting and friendly party with “every song a winner!”. Not withstanding that, if the function requires gentle “dinner music”, the repertoire also has that covered.
Having just performed at the 2006 New Year's Eve Celebrations at Moseley Square-Glenelg (South Australia) in front of an estimated 30,000 people, The Flaming Sambucas' lineup consists of
founding members Terry Nicholas (Keyboards and Vocals) and Michael Potter (Guitars), plus long serving female vocalist
(and back for a "second go") Jayde McSeveney and newest female vocalist Lesley Williams.
Included within their style, and with the same musical line-up as the original Abba, the Flaming Sambucas also feature a respectful and exciting Abba tribute show, complete with costume and music.
