Beatles Swing’ for the Gold Coast Jazz & Blues Club at the Arts Centre Gold Coast on Friday 13Th March

MEDIA RELEASE Monday 9th March 2015 Swing The Beatles It is difﬁcult to imagine the music of The Beatles without a guitar. Yet that is what Liverpool born singer and Brisbane resident Craig Martin has done. In a stroke of initiative Craig contacted Sony/ATV who now own 99% of the copyright to The Beatles songs and sought permission to have the Fab Four’s songs arranged swing style - but without a guitar in sight! The concept of no guitar in the swing arrangement really impressed the management of Sony/ATV as very few artists, if any, have ever covered Beatles songs without a guitar. It helped, also, that Craig Martin had grown up in Liverpool and as a teenager had played lots of venues where The Beatles had performed - The Cavern, The Jacaranda and had performed with other Merseyside greats over the years - Gerry Marsden, The Searchers and Billy Kinsley from The Merseybeats. Having been given permission from Sony/ATV to arrange 25 of The Beatles songs Craig used several talented arrangers around Brisbane and even legendary Aussie arranger Ed Wilson of Daly -Wilson Big Band fame to put their individual stamp on songs like Can’t Buy Me Love, Hey Jude, In My Life, Get Back, Yesterday. Sony/ATV told Craig that he is the only artiste in the world with permission to perform this many ‘swing’ Beatles songs in a show. In a World Premiere Craig Martin and his Swing Band perform ‘The Beatles Swing’ for the Gold Coast Jazz & Blues Club at The Arts Centre Gold Coast on Friday 13th March. DATE:Fri 13 March 7.30pm VENUE: The Paradise Showroom DURATION: 3 hours (including two intervals) COST: Jazz club members and Friends of The Arts Centre $23, Visitors $28 For more information visit www.theartscentregc.com.au/what's on/whats-on-items/ Gold Coast Jazz & Blues Club - The Beatles Swing or www.goldcoastjazzclub.com.

She has also written for Los Angeles Times, Entertainment Weekly, and New York Times, Los Angeles. ‘From heaving burning caravans into lakes at 1970s Finnish festivals to passing out in Stafford after three consecutive blowjobs, the Motörhead man proves a mean raconteur as he gabbles through his addled heavy metal career résumé’ Guardian ‘As a rock autobiography, White Line Fever is a keeper’ Big Issue ‘White Line Fever really is the ultimate rock & roll autobiography .

The Pirates and Pop Music Radio
SELLING THE SIXTIES Was pirate radio in the sixties a non-stop psychedelic party – an offshore discothèque that never closed? Or was there more to it than hip radicalism and floating jukeboxes? From the mavericks in the Kings Road and the clubs ofSohotothemultinationaladvertisers andbigbusiness boardrooms Selling the Sixties examines the boom of pirate broadcasting in Britain. Using two contrasting models of unauthorized broadcasting, Radios Caroline and London, Robert Chapman situates offshore radio in its social and political context. In doing so, he challenges many of the myths which have grown up around the phenomenon. The pirates’ own story is framed within an examination of commercial precedents in Europe and America, the BBC’s initial reluctance to embrace pop culture, and the Corporation’s eventual assimilation of pirate programming into its own pop service, Radio One. Selling the Sixties utilizes previously unseen evidence from the pirates’ own archives, revealing interviews with those directly involved, and rare audio material from the period. This fascinating look at the relationship between unauthorized broadcasting and the growth of pop culture will appeal not only to students of communications, mass media, and cultural studies but to all those with an enthusiasm for radio history, pop, and the sixties. Robert Chapman’s broadcasting experience includes BBC local radio in Bristol and Northampton. He has also contributed archive material to Radios One and Four. He is currently Lecturer and Researcher in the Department of Performing Arts and Media Studies at Salford College of Technology.

Representations of Liverpool Exceptionalism in the Merseybeat Period, 1960-1965
Representations of Liverpool Exceptionalism in the Merseybeat period, 1960-1965. Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy by David Kmiot June 2019 1 2 Acknowledgements The contributions of people who helped me with this project cannot be understated. I would like to thank Dr Graeme Milne for his unending support over the last five years, not just with the actual writing of the thesis. I would also like to thank Drs Laura Balderstone and Anna Bocking-Welch, my second supervisors, whose insights on oral history and a general understanding of whether what I was writing actually made sense were indispensable. I would like to also thank those who contributed to this thesis in the oral history interviews. Their willingness to talk, share stories, and entertain an inquisitive PhD student was invaluable. Personally, I would like to thank my mother, Nia, for her continued support in my attempts to squeeze just another bit of higher education into my life, my brother Huw for his support through keeping me amused, and Rachel Coombes, for being someone I could rely on when I was having thesis-related panics and being far more confident in my ability than I was myself. Finally, this thesis is dedicated to my late father, Wit, whose own frustrations at having not studied History were represented in bookshelves full of History books at home, and whose frustration I have now hopefully satisfied, in some way. 3 Table of Contents Abstract 5 Introduction 7 Part I 1.
