Orlin Stoyanov has been playing Beatles songs with various bands since the age of 12, both in Europe and in the United States where he has been residing since the age of 18. He has been a member of several South Florida groups with musical background as diverse as Country and 80's "Hair Bands". Orlin is a multi-instrumentalist/vocalist whose childhood dream came true when he became the lead guitarist/vocalist for the Beatlemaniax-USA, portraying the late, great George Harrison. Orlin is also an accomplished sound engineer/producer. He uses the Gretsch Country Gentleman, Tennessean and Duo Jet models that Harrison used in the early-to-mid 60's and of course the 12-string Rickenbacker guitar that gave so many groups their sound. Those are also plugged through a Vox amplifier for that authentic early Beatles sound. For the later era numbers he utilizes the "Rocky" Fender Stratocaster, the "Lucy" Gibson Les Paul and Rosewood Fender Telecaster, plus the Jumbo Gibson J-200 acoustic guitar, all known from the Let It Be film. He is also featured playing an Indian sitar on "Norwegian Wood" just as George had done on the recorded version.

Brad Saunders began his musical journey on the piano at age 8 and is largely self-taught. His musical influences are diverse and include the progressive rock of Genesis, Yes and King Crimson and the pop stylings of Billy Joel, from his native Long Island, New York, and Elton John. His love of Beatles music began in the mid-1970s when he first heard the strains of “The Night Before” from the soundtrack to the film “Help!” From that point on, he was hooked on the music of the fab four. Brad is our 5th Beatle, taking on the musical roles of George Martin, Billy Preston and Nicky Hopkins, while providing orchestration for many Beatle songs such as Eleanor Rigby, Yesterday, While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Penny Lane and Something.
The Beatlemaniax-USA are a real band, not a cast of Broadway-style characters with backup players (as are many of the tribute acts) where one isn't sure which four will turn up: you will get the exact same group that is featured here. So buy a Ticket to Ride and join their Magical Mystery Tour into the past.
