The topic for this Thursday's podcast, airing on January 11th, will be 'The Beatles and Rock Music.'
My next podcast will feature a musical journey through the 60s and 70s, focusing on the Beatles and the broader musical landscape of that era. We'll explore the British Invasion, the iconic music from the 'Summer of Love' in 1967, and tracks from artists like Cheap Trick, Paul McCartney/Wings, Monkees, Billy J. Kramer, Badfinger, Hollies, Donovan, and more.
In addition, we're excited to introduce you to the Weeklings, a remarkable band formed in New Jersey. They're America's most unique celebration of the music and muse of The Beatles, featuring former members of Styx, Dave Mason, the original 'Beatlemania' on Broadway, Jon Bon Jovi & The Kings of Suburbia, Southside Johnny and The Asbury Jukes, Springsteen drummer Max Weinbergβs Jukebox, and BeatleFest house band Liverpool.
The Weeklings perform and record explosive renditions of The Beatles' album and Top 40 classics, as well as uniquely arranged gems like "Paperback Writer," "Baby You're a Rich Man," and βI Am the Walrus.β They also craft brilliant Beatles-inspired power-pop originals, including βLittle Elvis,β "In the Moment," and "3," which was chosen as the #1 Coolest Song in the World in 2020 on Sirius/XM's Little Steven's Underground Garage. The band brings their music to life through extraordinary energy, exceptional vocals, and charming stage presence.
You can hear the Weeklings on Sirius XMβs The Beatles Channel, The Loft, and Little Stevenβs Underground Garage. We'll be promoting their upcoming performances at two Beatles events: the Beatles on the Beach Festival in Delray Beach, Florida, and Fest for Beatles Fans in New York.
