Respected even by reggae greats, the best Beatles cover band returns to Brazil!
The first Beats show (best Beatles cover band in the world) in Brazil was historic, such was the technical and visual fidelity with the original Beatles. The boys from Liverpool are unanimous in music. Even great reggae legends recognize the influence of the Beatles, no matter the style. Names like Gregory Isaacs, Nasio Fontaine, and many other vocal trios like Mighty Diamonds, Culture, in short, the English quartet is respected around the world. There are even compilations with various artists such as John Holt, Israelites, Maytals, among others, remaking Beatles's immortal hits with the unmistakable footprint of Reggae Roots. This is "Tribute to the Beatles Reggae Style", but it also has the Argentinian "Album Verde" and even independent versions in DUB, as in the video for "Eleonor Rigby" at the end of this article. On April 25th, the most respected Beatles cover band in the world, The Beats, will download Via Funchal for a single performance. Founded 20 years ago, in the city of Buenos Aires, the band THE BEATS was consecrated by "Beatles Annual Convention", from Liverpool - England, as the "Best Beatle Band in the World". What we will see on stage is the only scenic-musical show that exists worldwide about the music and history of Beatles.

HISTORY: THE SHOW

"History" is the name of the 2008 tour and the band will present a scenic and vocal art divided into nine chronological blocks, which show all the musicality and history of Beatles's incredible and passionate career. To contextualize the different eras that marked the group's trajectory, an agile and dynamic video will be projected on big screens, in order to narrate the story of Beatles. Furthermore, for the ambiance of each act, THE BEATS will feature a change of instruments according to the corresponding era and complete clothing that Beatles used between 1962 and 1970, their magical decade. The boys of THE BEATS use the only complete collection of musical instruments and amplifiers in the world used by the boys of Liverpool.

TESTIMONIALS
