Why hire The BBC Band?

A Beatles and 60's music experience. The BBC doesn't try to create an illusion by mimicking or acting like any particular band of the sixties, our focus is on the music. The band members painstakingly breakdown every musical nuance, to faithfully reproduce the original sound. And it’s all done live!

The BBC attacks each song with fire and enthusiasm. While having fun playing together, they create an infectious energy. This band has a warm, sociable stage presence, and delivers great music that sparks raw emotions in people of all ages.

FundraiserHeard "the" BBC Band in Warren tonight. They were wonderful! Talked to John and would like to have them for the 4th of July 2014. They do not have wigs and clothes to make them look like the Beatles,they are a bunch of guys who appear to have fun and in turn the audience has fun. Their musical ability is second to none...really enjoyed the evening, Wally and Polly Post
