Abbey Road Live is not your typical Beatles look-alike tribute act, so don't expect mop-top haircuts and 1962 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. While the four lads from Athens, Ga., generally perform as a quartet, they have been known to occasionally recruit the "Magical Mystery Horns" and the "Lonely Hearts Strings" to lend authentic accompaniment to the more elaborate tunes. The latest addition to the Abbey Road Live arsenal is a real Indian sitar and tablas. In honor of the 40th anniversary of the release of St. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, Abbey Road Live will perform an exact recreation of the album in its entirety. Abbey Road Live has been a headlining act at clubs, theaters, and festivals, as well as private events for nearly six years, bringing audiences young and old a feeling of nostalgia and disbelief at getting to hear this monumental music performed live -- something that even The Beatles themselves never did (having stopped touring in 1966). Come experience the magical mystery trip that is Abbey Road Live as they present St. Pepper Lives: 40th Anniversary Album Tribute!
