Liverpool Legends Return to the Centene Center

Mineral Area Council on the Arts and the City of Farmington are eager to announce the return of Liverpool Legends to the Centene Center, on Saturday, October 7, at 7:00 p.m. Tickets are $19.50 and will be available at the Civic Center desk.

The Beatles are one of the most known 1960s counterculture and influential pop music groups in the world. Liverpool Legends stands out from all other cover bands. These four lads were hand-picked by Louise Harrison, sister of the late George Harrison of the Beatles. She proudly expressed, “Liverpool Legends are the very best four guys to portray the Beatles since the only four guys to play the Beatles were John, Paul, George, and Ringo!” Top television and film producer Jerry Bruckheimer (CSI, Pirates of The Caribbean, National Treasure) chose this band over all other Beatles Tribute bands to portray the band that changed the course of music and the world forever. He described them as “Phenomenal in every way… It is pure magic!” Even Paul McCartney raved to Kevin Mantegna, “Hey, that’s you! I could spot John out anywhere! You make a great John!”

Not long after the death of her brother, George, Louise Harrison spotted Marty Scott, the band’s founder, while performing in Chicago with another Beatles cover band. Marty shares some special “fan-boy” moments on the band’s website, liverpoollegends.com. Some highlights include meeting and having a real conversation with Paul McCartney while sitting between him and Louise on a couch. Another is being requested by Tony La Russa to hang out following a Cardinal game at Busch Stadium for which the band had opened. La Russa said, “I’m a huge Beatles fan and it’s great to see the Liverpool Legends bring them back to life! Now I’m a Liverpool Legends fan! I highly recommend them!”

Liverpool Legends has performed for sold-out audiences of 20,000 people at Auditorio Nacional in Mexico City, and have performed in India, Israel, Ecuador, Chile, and throughout the U.S. A highlight of performing in the U.S. has been to headline at the prestigious Rose Bowl four times with over 160,000 people in attendance. Liverpool Legends also recorded and produced all the Beatles songs for the album, “Fab Fan Memories” which was nominated for a Grammy Award in 2012.

This performance will provide the full package! David Tanner (as Paul McCartney), Marty Scott (as George Harrison), Kevin Mantegna (as John Lennon), and Greg George (as Ringo Starr) have spent decades not only perfecting the sound and image of the Beatles, they have creating a transporting show. You will feel like you stepped back in time as Liverpool Legends takes the stage and embodies the sound, the look, the mannerisms of the band of yesterday. Relive, reminisce, or experience for the first time a live Beatles concert!

“This is a show you do not want to miss!” remarks Tiffany Gallaher, Executive Director of the Mineral Area Council on the Arts, “Not only are there countless and raving reviews online, but those who saw it last time they were here will tell you it is the closest performance to the legends themselves.” The Centene Center will host the group again. “In 2021, Liverpool Legends made it after the pandemic set many events back. We are so excited to have them again without the restrictions and delays that we had before.”
