About / Biography

"…If I’d closed my eyes, I would have thought it was The Beatles…fantastic!”
One of the many great reviews from our 2019 Friars Club show at Aylesbury Waterside Theatre.

Described by The British Beatles Fan club as “definitely not your average Beatles band”, since 2013

The Fab 5 have carved out a unique reputation for performing the music of The Beatles with authenticity, passion and raw energy to sell-out audiences around the country. Today, live shows draw on an incredible repertoire of over a hundred songs, including both hits and rarely heard album tracks.

Introduced in 2019 by music entrepreneur David Stopps, founder of The Friars Club Aylesbury, as “in my opinion, one of the top Beatles bands in the World”, The Fab 5 celebrate The Fab Four’s virtuosity with faithful musical renditions of hits and album tracks from every year of the group’s commercial success.

Since their formation in 2013, highlights have included performing at The Cavern, Liverpool (twice!), several live sessions on BBC local radio, performing on the same bill as Marillion, John Otway and Howard Jones, performing Abbey Road at the world-famous Friars Club, playing Towersey Festival main stage alongside Hothouse Flowers and The Selecter, and appearing on the same bill as Radio 1 DJ Annie Mac, performing to over 1,000 students at Trinity Hall College Cambridge.

“A must-see band for all Beatles fans”
