GAND BAND: Beatlemania vs. Monkee Madness!

Ladies and gentlemen, grab your go-go boots and turn up the transistor—because it’s Beatlemania vs. Monkee Madness!

It’s the British Invasion meets the Sunset Strip as The Gand Band takes you on a groovy ride through the sounds of two of the greatest pop phenomena of the ’60s—The Beatles and The Monkees!

Sure, The Monkees were made for TV as America’s answer to The Beatles—but these guys could really play, and their hit-makers included the best songwriters of the decade. Even The Beatles themselves were fans!

You’ll hear song pairings that show how their worlds intertwined—harmonies, hooks, and happiness from both sides of the Atlantic. From “Penny Lane” to “Daydream Believer,” from “Ticket to Ride” to “Last Train to Clarksville” this is the soundtrack of a generation, live and louder than ever!

Get ready for a toe-tapping, sing-along journey through an era when music changed the world — and when everyone wanted to be a Beatle… or a Monkee!

Vocalists Siobhan Velarde and Robbie Wayne will be backed by the Gand Band, winner of the CV Independent’s Best Local Band for FOUR years running. "The Gand Band brings great music from Chicago to Palm Springs" - Desert Sun News
