THE FAB FOUREVER (formerly TWIST & SHOUT) - Full of the raw energy, humour and an undeniable charisma that catapulted the BEATLES from Liverpool's Cavern Club to world stages, Twist and Shout is a Vancouver-based Beatles tribute band that will transport you back to a time when Beatlemania dominated a generation. Eric, as Lennon, is at his raunchiest when belting out epic songs like Twist and Shout. Jody, as McCartney, rocks out with extraordinary bass playing on songs like Paperback Writer, while Rocky delivers a steady Ringo backbeat and Elliot skillfully hammers the three combined solos on The End. Twist and Shout will fill your evening with legendary Fab Four hits from the first U.S. invasion through to the Abbey Road era. www.myspace.com/thefabfourever

The TOP DRAWERS are not your typical Vancouver band. A full on throw back to times when the guitars were raunchy and the vocals had soul, the Top Drawers have all the swagger of the original '60s big beat revolution with a modern twist. With their keen knack for melody and their danceable and accessible sound, the Drawers are making a serious splash in the Vancouver pond. www.myspace.com/thetopdrawers
