This is a very special night in music, it is the 54th anniversary of
the Beatles first performance on Ed Sullivan show! And yes…we will
have Beatles music playing all night. ABBEY ROAD LIVE WILL ALSO BE
PERFORMING USING SOME OF THE VERY YEARS AND MAKES OF GUITARS THAT WERE
MADE FAMOUS BY THE LADS FROM LIVERPOOL. Additionally, they will be
alongside the infamous Vox amplifiers that the Beatles so famously
played through their performance at Shea Stadium! This is sure to be
an unforgettable evening of classic tunes and special moments. Since
2002, ABBEY ROAD LIVE! has been rocking the music of the Beatles at
clubs, theatres, festivals, and private events. Initially a tribute to
the monumental “Abbey Road” album, the band has expanded its
scope to include more than 100 Beatles tunes, from all eras of the Fab
Four’s career. The band specializes in complete, start-to-finish
album performances of masterpieces such as “Abbey Road”,
“Magical Mystery Tour” and “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Heart’s
Club Band”.
Abbey Road LIVE! is not your typical Beatle look-alike tribute act;
don’t expect mop-top haircuts and vintage Rickenbacker guitars.
Rather, this show is about bringing to life some of the more mature
and complex Beatles material in a raw & spirited fashion, while
remaining true to the original recordings. Combining attention to
detail with a creative exuberance, the band always delights its
audiences with its diverse repertoire of hits and more obscure
favorites.
Abbey Road LIVE! is made up of four all-star musicians from the
infamous Athens GA music scene that gave the world R.E.M., Widespread
Panic, and B-52s. Collectively the band members have recorded and
toured regularly with Cosmic Charlie, Charlie Mars, and Fuzzy Sprouts.
Individual band members have also collaborated with acts such as
Indigo Girls, Juliana Hatfield, Mike Houser (Widespread Panic),
Danielle Howle and Lemonheads.
While the four lads from Athens GA generally perform as a quartet,
they have also been known to recruit the “Magical Mystery Horns”
and the “Lonely Hearts Strings”, lending authentic accompaniment
to the more elaborately orchestrated tunes. The latest addition to the
Abbey Road LIVE! musical arsenal is a real Indian sitar and tablas.
At a typical Abbey Road LIVE! show, audiences young and old can found
gleefully singing along with every word, many in utter disbelief at
getting to hear this monumental music performed live; something that
even the Beatles themselves never did, since they stopped touring in
1966.
