The Beatles - Reimagined by The Skeatles & Stephen McDaid

The Beatles - Reimagined by The Skeatles & Stephen McDaid.

A family friendly event.

The Beatles evolved from The Quarrymen Skiffle Group and The Skeatles take the Fab Four back their roots - performing the songs The Quarrymen didn’t know they they had in them.

Skiffle Beatles, get it? - Now that’s a Revolution!

The Skeatles feature a cream of Skiffolicious talent having fun with The Beatles.  Jamming the back beat in an offbeat band are:
David Thorpe - Guitar, Vocal, Harmonica (Li’l Chuck The One Man Skiffle Machine / Davey Backyard)
Paul Kean - Teachest Bass (The Bats)
Dan Heatley -  Drums (Shane MacGowan and The Popes)
JC Collins - Guitar, Vocal (Cement Garden / The Bends)
Liam Collins - Banjo (Little Paper Planes)
Gregory Shannahan - Washboard (Malarkey Irish band)
 
David Thorpe has dived so deep into the world Skiffle, that he recently talked with Rod Davis,  an original  member of The Quarrymen -  a guy who was there, the day Paul met John and whom Paul would later replace in the band. 

Stephen McDaid.
Master acoustic guitarist Stephen McDaid Hails from Culdaff on Ireland's most northernly coastline, Stephen comes from a musical family and began by playing bass in his Dad's Country band while at primary school. Moving to NZ in 2006, Stephen is the go to guy for all things guitar and bass.

Stephen will be reinterpreting his favourite songs by The Beatles, John, Paul, George & Ringo with his outstanding guitar and vocal skills.
