The Beatles Project is here to play Beatles songs and make them sound as much like the records as they can.  The guys like it best when the audience joins in by clapping, singing and dancing along while the band plays. They don't try to look and talk like the Beatles. Simply put, it's all about the music.

The Beatles Project hails from Merced California and has spent months of rehearsal and research to make the musical nuances and vocal reproductions of The Beatle's music sound authentic. It might be a lot like the way a conductor, symphony or chamber orchestra would approach a piece by Bach or Mozart but its whole lot more fun. Judging from the success of the concerts and the number of enthusiastic returning fans to the shows, the Beatles Project has found its niche.

The Beatles only toured the United States a handful of times; and when they stopped touring much of their work had never been performed live as they only played about ten songs on each tour. Vast numbers of Beatle fans didn't have the opportunity to see or hear the group; and those that did, heard a pretty limited portion of their recorded repertoire.

The Beatles Project is dedicated to the live production of The Beatles’ music so the listener may get close to experiencing what it might have sounded like when performed by the original band. This would include their catalogue of songs that were never performed after being recorded and pressed for release.

The band uses digital instruments and systems that reproduce the voicings of the Beatles’ various instruments on the original recordings.

There is a video production in the background during the show that features film clips of the Beatles and light show effects mixed with live shots of the on-going performance to augment and enhance the audience experience.

The Beatles Project is Tom Clarkson (guitar, vocals, and harmonica), Anthony Parber (Bass, guitar, harmonica, and vocals), Tom Salles (guitar, keyboard, and vocals) Jeff Sanders (drums, vocals and sound) and Jim Sanders (guitar, vocals). Bob Sanders serves as a consultant to the Project and Greg Spearance provides the band with his expertise as guitar and stage tech.
