Fab Beatles to rock Lanka
The Fab Beatles, the first ever
concert in Asia to be held in Sri Lanka on September 18 will be
presented by Mystere Entertainment Lanka in collaboration with the
Sunday Observer, Sri Lanka’s leading newspaper with the highest
circulation and Sri Lanka Telecom Mobitel.
 The UK’s Beatles tribute band formed in 1991 has gained recognition
as one of the most sought-after bands in the world. The foursome has
performed concerts all over the UK and are the craze in Europe, Middle
East and America. Chosen by the BBC as ‘The Best’ and commissioned by
EMI to promote the ‘Beatles1’ CD, the Fab Beatles are a good outfit
bringing the best of the Beatles.
Their music is as near to the original Beatles’ sound. The members
use only authentic instruments and costumes and can now boast to have
the very drum-kit Ringo used on The Beatles 1964 American tour no-less!
Unlike other acts, The Fab Beatles use no other musicians or tape
machines during their shows.
Every instrument is played completely ‘live’ by them. Their shows
cover everything that the Beatles trilogy sounds like. From the Cavern/
Hamburg/Mop-Top period; through to Rubber Soul/Revolver; Sgt. Pepper’s
and the Magical Mystery Tour, finishing with the songs from Abbey Road
and Let It Be albums.
The Fab Beatles are a popular band at wedding receptions in the UK
and the feedback they have received from their clients are astounding
and memorable.
