The Beatlemaniax-USA

The best Beatles Show Band in South Florida . The Beatlemaniax capture the look, and excitement of a real Beatles concert that most people haven't had the pleasure to experience. The Beatlemaniax wear the unique style clothing and "mop-top" hair that their mentors wore during their concert career, and play the same brand/model instruments the Beatles used. With their authentic hairstyle, clothes, instruments, and a Left Handed bassist (just like Paul), it's like going back in time to the craziness and hysteria of Beatlemania. The Beatlemaniax 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.
The Beatlemaniax perform the Beatles classic songs from their touring years, 1962-1966. The arrangements have been kept as close to the original recordings as possible and all members are featured during the show. They perform the hits as well as the beloved songs that should have been hits, thus giving their audience a wide variety of early Beatles classics. All the music is performed live with no aid of pre-recorded tracks, another big feature of some tribute productions. They can perform a total of up to 2 hours with up to 3 costume changes (1962-63 "Cavern", 1964 Ed Sullivan, 1965-66 Shea Stadium Authentic Costumes)

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 "Lucy" Gibson Les Paul and Rosewood Fender Telecaster, plus the Jumbo Gibson J-200 acoustic guitar, all known from the Let It Be film.
