About Abbey Road Live (Beatles):
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 typcial 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 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.
"We saw you do Magical Mystery Tour that Saturday nite in Louisville. My God - we were blown away. My fiancee couldn't believe "Blue Jay Way". "Baby You're A Rich Man" - I can't even put it into words how we enjoyed that. I swear to God that was one of the best concerts I have ever been to. Thanks so much for sharing your joy for the Fab Four with us!""
-Joni Jackman
"Amazing how faithful your performance was at covering all the nuances in real time. Great job, thank you so much."
-Mark Price
"What an awesome show you all put on at AROTR! Magical Mystery Tour album was something to see and hear. Your group is far and above many that performed there. Hope to see you all next year."
-Michael Faunce
"You all truly made AROTR a fantastic experience! I'm so glad we caught your full performances of Abbey Road and Magical Mystery Tour as well as your rockin' Sunday afternoon concert! You all are undoubtedly an individually talented group, but your cohesive shows were the highlight of my weekend. Thank you so much for your outstanding musicianship and please keep me posted on any events you guys play!"
-Melody Rose
"I saw you perform Magical Mystery Tour here in Louisville last weekend and you did an awesome job! I've always thought that most of those songs couldn't be done well live, but you have proved me wrong! I was most impressed with Baby You're A Rich Man. You made that into a show stopper! I can't wait to see you here again next year. "
-Tim O'Rourke
"You guys were the most awesome band at Abbey Road On The River. Any chance of adding Pittsburgh to the tour schedule? The Magical Mystery Tour show was a musical treat!"
-David Romesberg
"Great show last night! I'm in a garage band and know how difficult some of those songs are to play; you guys made it look easy."
-Rick Gnann
"You guys change my life with each show. 'I have to admit it's getting better, it's getting better all the time.' "
