The Mersey Beatles: Celebrating 60 years of Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band

The Mersey Beatles, a Liverpool-based tribute act to The Beatles, present a concert marking sixty years since the release of Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, staged at EartH in London.

The Mersey Beatles are a tribute act devoted to The Beatles, performing since 1999. Their show on this visit marks the sixtieth anniversary of Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, the Beatles'1967 album. The programme begins with that record, featuring Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, With a Little Help from My Friends, When I'm Sixty-Four, Being for the Benefit of Mr Kite! and A Day in the Life, before moving through the group's wider catalogue, from the Beatlemania period to Abbey Road.

The Mersey Beatles are a tribute and not the original group, presenting a celebration of John, Paul, George and Ringo. The performers wear costumes and play instruments in the style of the original band, and the stage show draws on Scouse humour and the Mersey sound of the era. Over 600 appearances during a ten-year residency at the Cavern Club in Liverpool preceded their international touring, and more than a million people have seen them worldwide.

EartH is a concert and performance venue at 11 Stoke Newington Road in London N16, run as a social enterprise that supports new musicians. Its music studios are free for young artists to use. The evening will suit those who enjoy the music of The Beatles and the album at the centre of the show.
