GROOVIN’ UP SLOWLY | Vocalist Donna Woodall joins us for COME TOGETHER
“The Beatles will exist without us.” George Harrison Recently, I got a call to play bass with vocalist Donna Woodall. During the show we did a couple of Beatles songs and it got my wheels turning. I talked to Donna after the show about possibility joining our group for some shows doing Beatles covers. She was all about it! So the idea was born-“Come Together” The Beatles Soulfully Reimagined. Spanning the Beatles catalog using versions from artists such as: Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin, Marcus Miller & Herbie Hancock, the 6-piece group funkifies the Fab Four. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2GMGaeWOEg I’ve always loved the Beatles music. Their musical evolution within such a short period of time showcases their remarkable creativity. Once Ringo joined the band, the Fab Four were only together for eight years. Eight years! Within that span they composed some of the most diverse melodies, harmonies and rhythms within popular music. Although they broke up in 1970, the music of the Beatles continues going strong. I guess George was right; the Beatles will exist without them. We hope to see you this year as we inject a little KBP into these fascinating and timeless songs.
