Julia Baird, sister of John Lennon and author of a book on Lennon’s formative years, will appear alongside official tribute band The Mersey Beatles Thursday, Oct. 13 at the David & Dorothea Garfield Theatre, 4126 Executive Drive. Baird will be selling and signing copies of her book “Imagine This: Growing Up with My Brother John Lennon” at the event, which begins at 7:30 p.m.
\nThe book, published in 2007, addresses much reported misinformation on Lennon, his family and his place as one of the greatest composers and lyricists in modern music history. It also examines Lennon’s separation from his mother at age 5 in his native Liverpool and the emotional toll this action would take amid his musical evolution.
\nFrom 2002 to 2012, The Mersey Beatles were the resident band at Liverpool’s The Cavern Club, where the Beatles perfected their act before launching the rock revolution of the 1960s. The band has re-created Beatles hits in 20 countries since 1999.
\nTickets are $25 and $35; a meet-and-greet with the band and Baird is $55. Visit tickets.ljfcc.org for purchase.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
