Beatles

Beatles Many Musicians have found great success through pop music but none more than the beatles. With their ungroomed hair and stylish suits they created an aura that no young girl could resist. Media followed them like no other band before. Being a musician who lives for music I have always wondered how this band started and came to be legendary. Greatly influenced by rock legend Elvis Presley, John Lennon started his first band called the Quarrymen in 1956 at the age of sixteen (Schaffner 12). On July 6, 1957 John Lennon’s bandmate, Ivan Vaughan, invited his friend Paul to the St. Peter's Church garden in Woolton, Liverpool where the Quarrymen would be playing. Paul actually went, not to hear the band perform, but rather because Ivan had convinced him that the church picnic would be a great place to pick up girls (Brown and Gaines 21).
