Marty Scott found himself sitting on a couch wedged between Paul McCartney and Louise Harrison, George Harrison’s sister. Squeezed beside one legendary Beatle and the sister of another would feel surreal to anybody, but especially to Scott because he had recently begun playing George Harrison in a Beatles tribute band.
“I’m thinking, ‘This is weird,’” Scott recalls. “I’m still freaking out that I’m with her, you know? We sat with Paul for like 45 minutes on the couch. It was a cool time in my life, just bizarre. I got to sing with him for a second. It was the coolest day ever.”
Scott and Harrison had recently become friends when she spotted him performing as George Harrison in a festival in Chicago just a few months after George had passed away. “This figure comes out on stage looking exactly like my brother, singing a song [‘While My Guitar Gently Weeps’] sounding exactly like my brother, and for the first time since he had died, the tears just streamed down my face,” remembers Harrison.
It was then that they struck up a friendship and eventually a plan to work together. Scott ended up starting a new band that he named the Liverpool Legends with Harrison as an integral part. A Beatles tribute band is not the easiest thing to assemble. You have to get people who look and sound like the person they’re playing, have the skills to play an instrument and like the lifestyle of playing in a touring band.
After assembling a band that checks all of those boxes, they still had to book shows. “We just have this new band, and I’m on the phone with a booker, and I say ‘We have this new band. It’s really great. Can we send you our video?’” Scott says. “And they’re always like, ‘He’s on the phone right now. Can I take a message?’
“I wasn’t really breaking through, so I said, ‘Hey, Lou. Call this guy and say you’re the manager of the band.’ So she calls the same company and says, ‘Oh, I got this band.’ She’d get the ‘He’s on the other line,’ and she says, ‘Well, tell them this is George Harrison’s sister, and this is my band.’ They’d say, ‘Wait, he just got off the other line.’”
