Get Back

It’s a common misconception in pop music history that Liverpool’s musical journey began and ended with the Beatles. However, this isn’t the case. “Get Back” unveils the true narrative of the city’s musical evolution, spanning from the post-war era to the present. This is the tale of a city where countless bands and artists, along with numerous clubs, promoters, and managers, orchestrated one of the most significant and enduring celebrations in history. The golden age of The Cavern and the Merseybeat movement sparked a monumental shift in popular culture, and in the 1970s, a new wave emerged centered around another iconic venue, Eric’s. Leading this resurgence were bands like Deaf School, Echo and the Bunnymen, and OMD, followed by acts such as Frankie Goes to Hollywood, the Farm, the La’s, and the Christians. More recently, the city’s musical innovation has continued with groups like the Zutons, Coral, and Wombats. While the story is ongoing, “Get Back” provides music enthusiasts with an opportunity to appreciate the rich narrative and the sounds that have emanated from this world-shaking city.
