Area bands saying yeah, yeah, yeah to music of The Beatles at Blind Pig tribute show Saturday
Beatlemaniacs should be in heaven Saturday night. That’s when around a dozen mostly local musicians and bands will come together to offer a night of eclectic interpretations of Beatles tunes at the first-ever Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Jam at the Blind Pig.“We have some straight-up rock and roll bands on the bill, we have a hip-hop artist on the bill, we have some moody folk indie people on the bill,” said Alejandra O’Leary, one of the event organizers as well as a musical participant. “You can invite a broad range of artists to interpret these songs, its’ a natural fit. … Every album, every era, every facial hair is fair game. “It’s a good mix of Beatle-y bands and non-Beatle-y bands, I think,” she added.Longtime local favorites George Bedard & The Kingpins will perform a special mid-show set of music from bands that influenced The Beatles. He’ll be followed by nearly a dozen others who will delve into the Fab Four’s formidable catalog.
