Profile:
The
Beatlemaniacs
are the UK’s
most authentic,
and accurate
Beatles Tribute.
Formed in 2002,
the group has
developed their
show into a
fantastic live
act, and the
show now
contains many
costume changes,
over 150 songs
from the Beatles
repertoire, all
the correct
suits, guitars,
amplifiers,
drums, boots,
and even their
own hair!
The Beatlemaniacs
have toured the
world
extensively,
performing
Beatles' hits to
sell out
audiences the
world over. The
Beatlemaniacs
have
made appearances
on BBC TV, on
the Blue Peter
programme, and
of course, they
all received
Blue Peter
Badges!! The
group have
appeared many
times on Radio,
and also
featured on
local and
national news.
The
Beatlemaniacs
also appear
annually at the
Mathew Street
Festival in
Liverpool for
the 'Beatle
Week'
celebrations,
and regularly
offer their
services to
Charity and
Fundraising
events.
The group has traveled across Europe and the world, visiting countries such as Belgium, Holland, Denmark, France, Russia and Spain, and also performing at Beatles Festivals in these countries. The group have twice embarked upon a 6 week Theatre tour of New Zealand, covering every major town and city in the country, the first Beatles Tribute to tour the country.
As a further career highlight, on 30thJanuary 2008, The Beatlemaniacs recreated the Beatles’ famous ‘Rooftop Concert’, 39 years to the day since the Fab Four performed on the roof of Number 3, Saville Row, London. This performance was covered by local and national news, including BBC TV and Tyne Tees TV.
Richard Jordan portrays John Lennon in the group. Alongside Richard stand Chris Johnson (Paul McCartney) Greg Alderson (George Harrison) and ‘Jimbo’ Jordan (Ringo Starr), each one a highly acclaimed musician in their own right. With the average age of the group being only 23, they are highly regarded by many as the top Tribute to The Beatles.
A
performance by
The
Beatlemaniacs
will consist of
songs covering
the entire
career of The
Beatles. Here is
an example of
how a show might
run through the
years..........
1962-64
The show begins
in the black and
white days of
the early 60's,
at the very
beginning of The
Beatles' career,
consisting of
songs such as
She Loves You, I
Want To Hold
Your Hand, and
From Me To You,
this is an
explosive set of
hits, Mop-Top
hair and Cuban
Heeled Boots!
1965-66
The Beatles are
now a worldwide
phenomenon, and
after having
toured the
world, released
million selling
singles such as
Help, Day
Tripper and I
Feel Fine, they
are performing
in larger
venues, such as
Shea Stadium in
New York, USA,
which at the
time was the
biggest concert
ever conceived,
with 50,000+
people in
attendance. The
Beatles are on
top of the
world, but very
soon their
career as a
touring band
will be
over.....
1967-68
The Summer of
Love is
beckoning, LSD
is the drug of
choice among
youngsters, and
with the Vietnam
War in full
swing, the world
looks to The
Beatles for
refuse. The
Beatles are now
a 'studio' band,
and are
releasing
psychedelic
songs such as
Strawberry
Fields Forever,
Penny Lane, and
All You Need Is
Love. It is a
beatiful time,
filled with
beautiful
people, on a
Magical Mystery
Tour through the
late 60's.
1969-70
The Beatles are
coming towards
the end of their
career, and now
with long hair,
beards and
arguements, they
release some of
their greatest
work, the
'White' Album,
Let It Be and
Abbey Road.
Songs such as
Come Together,
Back In The
USSR,
Revolution and
Here Comes The
Sun define this
era, as the
story of The
Beatles comes to
a close.
