In the words of Peter Sprague,<\/p>\n

\u201cI grew up with the music of The Beatles filling our household airwaves. Heck, most of us probably did. These songs hold so much meaning for me. Every album that came out was an historic event and each album brings back wonderful memories of growing up and having a rocking soundtrack for that era of my life. It\u2019s such a thrill to return to their music and dress the songs up with my jazz and Brazilian influences and experience their brilliance in a new way. This concert is going to be a fun time for us.\u201d<\/p>\n

The band includes vocalists Kevyn Lettau and Mike Falker, saxophonist Tripp Sprague, John Opferkuch on keyboards, bassist Gunnar Biggs, drummer Duncan Moore and Peter Sprague on guitar.<\/p>\n
