Join us for the 12th Annual Beatles Tribute in Creek Park!

San Anselmo Arts Commission to Sponsor Beatles Tribute for the 12th Year

San Anselmo, CA-July 8, 2012-For the 12th straight year, the San Anselmo Arts Commission will be holding the ever popular Beatles Tribute on Saturday night July 13 at Creek Park in San Anselmo. Peter Penhallow, the driving force and musical director behind the 30+ piece Liddypudians is eagerly looking forward to this year’s extravaganza. 

Peter has brought together the talents of 4 string players, 5 horns, a chorus of 12, not to mention the rock band Revolver as the backbeat to the night’s festivities. For 2013, the San Anselmo Arts Commission and the Marin Community Music School have joined forces to bring an additional Sunday afternoon performance on July 14th from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. that benefits Marin Community Music School. It's a family-friendly way to enjoy the music of The Beatles as originally recorded, featuring strings, winds, brass, and chorus along with the core rock band. Says Penhallow. ”I’ve seen this event grow from a few hundred people to 1000 or so that fill the park every year.” He also adds. ”I’ve watched many families with small children singing right along to the songs not missing a beat or lyric. I’m proud to be part of something that brings such joy and love to the community.” Both Marin Community Music School's founder and director, David Lusterman, and guitar instructor Kurt Huget have been members of The Liddypudlians from the start, and MCMS guitar instructor Travis Andrews is joining the band for the first time.

The Beatles Tribute, which is the kick-off live music event of the summer in Ross Valley, is the major fundraiser for the San Anselmo Arts Commission.  One of the many events that the commission funds is the Music in the Park free concert series which takes place in Creek Park every Sunday from 1pm to 4pm. This year’s series starts on July 21st with the “Garden Gypsies” and runs through August 18th closing with “Revolver”.

The Beatles Tribute on Saturday July 13th starts at 6pm and ends at 9pm. Cost is $15.00 for adults and $5.00 for children under 12. The Sunday July 14th  “family event” starts at 1pm and ends at 3pm. Cost is $10 at the door. Creek Park is located at the “Hub” in San Anselmo and will open for seating at 4:30pm.  So bring your blankets, a picnic meal and “Get Back” to Creek Park for a unforgettable evening of fun!
