(TOMS RIVER, NJ) -- The Grunin Center for the Arts presents The Weeklings BeatlesBash on Saturday, April 13, 2024 at 8:00pm. This is a journey through the music of The Beatles featuring the Horns & Strings Orchestra and more!
Starring Glen Burtnik, Bob Burger, John Merjave and Joe Bellia, The Weeklings present a joyously rocking celebration of the timeless music of The Beatles featuring the incredible 10-piece Horns & Strings Orchestra! The 2-hour show highlights selections from The Beatle’s “Ed Sullivan” years in the first half and after a brief intermission, takes you on a trip through the psychedelically tinged, musically sophisticated, with the addition of orchestral arrangements, music from their later recordings including Rubber Soul, Revolver, Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, Magical Mystery Tour, The White Album, the seminal Abbey Road and Let It Be.
And since this is, of course, The Weeklings, a sprinkling of Weeklings’ fan-fave original songs, placed perfectly within the sets, will be included and since 2024 marks the 60th anniversary of The Beatles coming to America we’ll highlight some of the great songs that America heard on those fateful 3 weeks in February of 1964when The Beatles captured our hearts on the Ed Sullivan Show!
