Beatlemania will return to Truman’s Baldwin Auditorium at 7 p.m. Oct. 6 with a performance by Liverpool Legends.

As part of the Kohlenberg Lyceum Series, this internationally acclaimed tribute band will take the stage for a performance spanning songs from the entire Beatles catalog, complete with vintage instruments and outfit changes for an authentic feel.

Hand-picked by Louise Harrison, the sister of the late George Harrison, Liverpool Legends have been headlining their own production in Branson, Missouri, since 2006. They have been voted best new show, best band, best show and they have received the visitors’ choice award for best show. They received national attention as they re-created the Beatles famed 1966 concert at Busch Stadium in St. Louis.

In 2012, Liverpool Legends, along with Harrison, were nominated for a Grammy Award for their work on “Fab Fan Memories: The Beatles Bond.” The band has traveled and performed around the world, playing sold out shows in Mexico, India, Israel, Ecuador and England, and at historic venues including the Rose Bowl and Carnegie Hall.

This performance will also include the return of Truman alumnus David Tanner (’95) who portrays Paul McCartney.

Tickets are available starting Sept. 25 and can be picked up on campus in the Union & Involvement Office in the Student Union Building, the Advancement Office in McClain Hall 205 or the Admissions Office in the Ruth W. Towne Museum and Visitors Center. Tickets are also available downtown at the Kirksville Arts Association.
