AMERICAN ENGLISH - The Beatles Tribute
American English has shared the stage with musical
headliners such as The Grassroots, The Neville Brothers, Three
Dog Night, The Ides of March, Eric Burdon, The Buckinghams, The
Doobie Bros., Badfinger, and many others.
With the band's increasing
success, American English hit the international scene in 1999 making
their debut in Tokyo. Their appearance hit the Press and initiated
a major article in the upscale Japanese magazine Lightening, causing
"American English Mania" in Japan. The frenzied crowds
in Tokyo reacted as though they were seeing the real thing!
In Aug.
of 2000, American English invaded the Caribbean and appeared on
every major television network in Puerto Rico. American English
was truly a band on the run. Constantly pursued by television,
radio, and newspapers, they stirred up the islanders like never
before. As an added honor, The President of the House of Representatives,
Carlos Vizcarrondo, invited the band to the capitol for a private
meeting. The band made history by being the only American band
to ever perform at the capitol.
In November of 2000, American English
awakened a major significant figure in The Beatle world. Sam
Leach (the original Beatles promoter from Liverpool) was
in town for a book signing for his story, Birth
Of The Beatles. After seeing American English, he has since
called the band "The Beatles incarnate!" and is now
back promoting and managing American English.
Under the wings of Sam Leach, American English
was granted the honor never bestowed upon any other group. They
traced the historic footsteps of The Beatles, and performed on
the hallowed ground of several original Beatles venues including
The Cavern Club in Liverpool.
In December of 2001, the band headlined the George Harrison
tribute at the House of Blues in Chicago, where they were joined
by several legendary Beatles/Wings related artists. This tribute
was the first of its kind and the event made news headlines around
the world. The band had the distinct honor to perform with the
original Beatles drummer Pete Best!
Their crowning moment came in 2002, as they headlined
International Beatle Week in Liverpool in front of a screaming
crowd of 50,000 plus! To top it all off, American English recorded
a concept album at the famed Abbey Road Studios in London.
The
fantasy album What If, features songs that might
have ended up on the next Beatles record, had they stayed together
in 1971. American English is the only Beatles act to
have ever performed concerts accompanied by Denny Laine, co-founder
of Wings, and the original Wings horn section, featuring Howie
Casey, Thaddeus Richard and Steve Howard. Recently, they have all
joined forces to put on special concerts around the world. This
unprecedented merging of talent begins with American English as
The Beatles, and closes with an incredible tribute to Paul McCartney
and Wings.
This unique and exclusive show entitled "Rock Show" is
currently available to the public.
The fantasy lives on with these remarkable musicians
who take the music to the highest level possible. American English
is the closest you will ever get to reliving The Beatles. Whether
you grew up with the Fab Four or not, this show will be your
window to the past. Witness "The Complete Beatles Tribute" with
American English!
