DICKINSON — The iconic sounds of The Beatles are set to reverberate through the DSU Dorothy Stickney Auditorium in Dickinson on Monday, Sept. 25, at 7 p.m., as the Beatles tribute band “Here Comes the Sun” prepares to take the stage. Organized by the Dickinson Area Concert Association, this event promises a musical journey back to the 1960s with a fresh and authentic take on the legendary band’s music.
“Here Comes the Sun” is not your typical Beatles impersonation act. Composed of five multi-talented instrumentalists and vocalists with backgrounds in Broadway, Lincoln Center and the Trans-Siberian Orchestra, the ensemble aims to celebrate a decade of Beatles music, eschewing costumes and wigs to focus solely on the music itself.
The Beatles, known for their groundbreaking sound and innovative songwriting, left an indelible mark on the music industry. “Here Comes the Sun” seeks to recreate the complex and diverse musical landscape of the Fab Four’s era by utilizing the skills of its versatile members. Their commitment to an entirely live and authentic performance, without the aid of backing tracks, is expected to bring back the magic of the Beatles’ timeless hits for southwest North Dakota attendees.
The concert is a noteworthy departure from the traditional tribute acts that aim to impersonate the band members. Instead, “Here Comes the Sun” promises an evening dedicated solely to the music, encompassing both chart-topping hits and lesser-known gems from the Beatles’ vast musical repertoire.
