Biography: (Taken from Beatle Week 2007 programme)
Nube 9 or Cloud Nine, as their name translates, evolved in Argentina in 2001, when members of several different bands convened to play the music of their favourite group: The Beatles. They made their debut as a band at the first Latin American Beatle Week in Buenos Aires, and there began a career which in a short time, has seen them become one of the most popular tribute groups in Latin America.

Over the years, Nube 9 have staged many different shows sometimes recreating a live concert, performing entire records or conceptual pieces of work of the Beatles, including presentations of 'The White Album', 'Sgt. Pepper - Magical Mystery Tour', 'Revolver - Rubber Soul', 'Let It Be - Abbey Road', as well as the post-Beatles era solo music. Expanding their number to 15 with the addition of extra musicians, the band are able to recreate with precision the sound of the Beatles recordings, and even with their usual 7-strong line-up, Nube 9 always offers a little something extra in their shows, making it clear that whatever they do, they do it with passion for what they love.

In 2006 Nube 9 was invited to Beatle Week for the first time. They were a huge success and they return this year with even more eagerness and energy! Check them out - you'll be on Cloud Nine!
