The British Invasion
The British Invasion
A group of British kids crossed the Atlantic in the 1960's and forever changed American music. They created the soundtrack for a tumultuous era and keep us on edge with new music to this day.
Experience the British Invasion through the sounds of 2 guitars, 2 synthesizers, a drummer and wailing vocals. Not your grandma's cabaret (but she'll love the cute boy-band!) Featuring artists like The Beatles, Herman's Hermits, and Rod Stewart.
