28.08.2009 - New band, new site
Dear Beatlespeople. In front of you the brand new website of a brand new band: ‘Love & Mersey’, a tribute to The Beatles! It's not been finished yet. We'll be working on the layout and the content during the weeks to come.
‘Love & Mersey’; a group of experienced and dedicated musicians who interpret the music of the Beatles true in letter and spirit. A performance of ‘Love & Mersey’ is a trip down memory lane. A sixties experience to never forget. ‘Love & Mersey’ is probably the best Beatles Tribute Band found in the Netherlands. Its members are talented and professional
musicians with excellent credentials in popmusic and playing the music of the Beatles.
Its core originates in the memorable Mal Evans Memorial Band which was awarded the first Golden Apple Award as best Beatles Tribute Band by ‘Beatles Unlimited’ in 2005. The band performed 3 years in a row during the prestigious Beatle week in Liverpool where they played the famous stage of the Cavern several times. They also played a tremendous show before a 10.000 strong frenzied audience at the Beatles Festival in Belarus, introduced their CD ‘The Beatles in het Nederlands’ (The Beatles in Dutch) on Dutch national television, performed with orchestras, on rooftops and on the canals of Utrecht with thousands of people on the sunny quay sides. The band was well-known and managed to leave an unforgettable impression on Beatle fans in the international Beatles circuit.
This heart of ‘Love & Mersey’ is completed with two conservatory schooled and attractive musicians from Macca. This McCartney tribute band had its promising debut during the 29th International Beatles convention at the Musketon Theatre in Utrecht and performed successfully during the Night of Culture in Houten. They were especially praised by Beatle experts for their performances of the often quite difficult McCartney/Wings classics. |
