Biography: (taken from the Beatleweek 2004 Programme)
Making their first appearance at Beatleweek, this Texas based group have already built up a solid following in the States. Comprising of founding members George Jara (George Harrison) and Rod Bollinger (John Lennon), with Michael Daniel (Ringo Starr) and Paul Sacco (Paul McCartney) completing the line-up, the band have been in existence since 1998.
Me & My Monkey have made numerous US television appearances and have headlined many festivals performing with the likes of Denny Laine of Wings and Gordon Waller, of Peter and Gordon fame. The band are fastidious when it comes to recreating both the sound and look of The Beatles and were voted Fort Worth Weekly's 'best cover band' in 2003.
Their name, of course, is taken from the side three, track four song on The Beatles White Album, and although the band's repertoire covers all aspects of The Beatles songbook, their Pier Head show on Saturday will feature the last two years of the Fabs career. Coincidentally their Cavern Club Back show on Thursday marks the 36th anniversary of the US release of Hey Jude… no doubt Me & My Monkey will include this song in their set!
So make sure you catch Me & My Monkey… Come on, it's such a joy!
