They have performed in venues throughout Liverpool, including St George’s Hall, Liverpool Philharmonic’s Music Room and Liverpool Cathedral, and have toured Spain and Catalunya twelve times, opening the prestigious Mahon music festival in 2012, and playing in venues such as the Cathedral of Pamplona, and the Teatro Principal de Valls. In 2015 the quartet gave the world premiere of the full string quartet version of The Snowman, which was arranged for the quartet by its composer Howard Blake. They have recorded this on CD, with Sir Ken Dodd narrating, along with a quartet version of the children’s classic Peter and the Wolf. In 2018 the Liverpool String Quartet gave a concert of Beatles music, narrated by Hunter Davies, which was a finalist in Carlisle Living Magazine’s ‘Event of the Year’ award. As well as Ken Dodd and Hunter Davies, the quartet have collaborated with many other celebrated musicians and artists, including pianist Martin Roscoe, DJ Spooky, and James Clark, former leader of the RLPO. The quartet has many concerts planned for 2021 and 2022, including performances at Liverpool Philharmonic’s Music Room, and tours to Spain and to Ireland for the National String Quartet Foundation’s 2021 season. ‘The Liverpool string quartet brought beauty and skill to this piece, which demanded some incredible, technical solos...this piece really proves that Liverpool boasts genius in the orchestra’s string section’ (artinLiverpool.com) ‘The setting is divine, the sound sublime - this is like angel wings fluttering past my ears...The music speaks to me, it is rapturous and I am melting into my seat..the quartet is in flight’ (Liverpool-live.tv) ‘Impeccable playing by the Liverpool String Quartet effortlessly carries the sentiments embodied in the musical sections’ (catalystmedia.org.uk) ‘Thank you for that amazing concert..Carlisle people are somewhat reserved in concerts, and I’ve never seen a standing ovation in hundreds of them over the past 40 years, so you must have been good!’ (Borderlines Carlisle) MATT LAMMIN Matt Lammin is a musical director, arranger and vocalist based in Merseyside. He runs vocal groups in many guises and the groups he directs have backed high profile artists, held residencies at local venues, competed in live BBC television competitions and performed across the country. Over one hundred of his vocal arrangements are published online and a few years ago he was commissioned to compose a vocal piece for a female vocal group in Pennsylvania during which he was flown over to guest-conduct the Matt Lammin & Friends choir for the premiere of his piece. As a vocalist with Sense of Sound Singers, he has performed across Europe and provided backing vocals for artists such as Take That, Ringo Starr and Pink Floyd as well as backing Russell Watson on a 19-date tour of the UK. For this gig at the Bombed Out Church, he has brought together three singers from the White Star Choir who he directed for their residency at the Titanic Hotel last Christmas: Amy Chalmers, Molly Daniel and Jeanette Davies, who are all singers and musicians in their own right and perform professionally across Merseyside. MIKE *McGEAR McCARTNEY Peter Michael “Mike” McCartney (born 7 January 1944), known professionally as Mike McGear, is a British performing artist and rock photographer and the younger brother of Paul McCartney. He attended the Liverpool Institute two years behind his brother. Michael and his brother Paul (born 18 June 1942) were both born in the Walton General Hospital in Liverpool, where their mother, Mary McCartney, had previously worked as a nursing sister in charge of the maternity ward. Michael was not enrolled in a Catholic school as his father, Jim McCartney, believed that they leaned too much towards religion instead of education. At age 17, McCartney started his first job at ‘Jackson’s the Tailors’ in Ranelagh Street, Liverpool. The year after he took an apprenticeship at ‘Andre Bernard’, a hairdresser for ladies in the same street. Musical Career At the time the Beatles became successful, Mike McCartney was working as an apprentice hairdresser. However, he was also a member of the Liverpool comedy-poetry-music group the Scaffold, which included Roger McGough and John Gorman and had formed in 1962 (the year of the Beatles’ first hit). McCartney decided to use a stage name, so as not to appear to be riding his brother’s coattails. After first dubbing himself “Mike Blank”,[5] he settled on “Mike McGear”, “gear” being the Liverpudlian equivalent of “fab”. The band was subsequently signed to Parlophone. The Scaffold recorded a number of UK hit singles between 1966 and 1974, the most successful being the 1968 Christmas number one single, “Lily the Pink”. McCartney composed the band’s next biggest hit, 1967’s “Thank U Very Much”. In 1968, he and McGough released a “duo” album (McGough & McGear) that included the usual Scaffold mix of lyrics, poems, and comedy. The Scaffold ended up hosting a TV program, which limited the musical portion of their career, and they were dropped by Parlophone. McCartney then signed to Island Records and released a solo musical album entitled Woman in 1972—About this sound sample (help·info)—which again included many tracks co-written with McGough, and the Scaffold subsequently released their own album on the label, Fresh Liver. The Scaffold then added several other members and released two albums on Island in 1973 as Grimms (an acronym for Gorman-Roberts-Innes-McGear-McGough-Stanshall). However, McCartney quit Grimms after the second album due to tension between himself and one of the poets added to the group. McCartney then signed to Warner Bros. Records and in 1974 released his second “serious” musical album, McGear, in which he collaborated with his brother Paul and Paul’s band Wings. Although four singles were released from these sessions, only “Leave It” enjoyed any moderate chart success (No. 36 UK). However, also recorded during McCartney’s sessions with Wings was a Scaffold “reunion” song, “Liverpool Lou”, which became the Scaffold’s last top-ten hit. This led to the group’s re-formation in 1974, and they recorded and performed together through 1977. Individually, McCartney released a few more singles. His final release, while still using the name Mike McGear, was the 1981 release “No Lar Di Dar (Is Lady Di)”. This was a satirical tribute to Lady Diana Spencer, released at the time of her wedding to Prince Charles. In the 1980s, after retiring from music, Mike McCartney decided to end his use of the “McGear” pseudonym and revert to use of his family name. Photographic Career McCartney was a photographer during his entire musical career, and has continued with photography since then. Beatles’ manager Brian Epstein nicknamed him “Flash Harry” in the early 1960s because he was always taking pictures with a flash gun. He has published books of pictures that he took of the Beatles backstage and on tour, and he recently brought out a limited edition book of photos he took spontaneously backstage at Live8. In 2005, McCartney premiered and exhibited a collection of photographs that he had taken in the 1960s, called “Mike McCartney’s Liverpool Life”, both in Liverpool and other venues, such as The Provincial Museum of Alberta. In addition, an exhibition book was published of the collection. He also took the cover photograph for Paul McCartney’s 2005 solo album Chaos and Creation in the Backyard..

  • Course Outline and Syllabus the Fab Four and the Stones: How America Surrendered to the Advance Guard of the British Invasion
    Course Outline and Syllabus The Fab Four and the Stones: How America surrendered to the advance guard of the British Invasion. This six-week course takes a closer look at the music that inspired these bands, their roots-based influences, and their output of inspired work that was created in the 1960’s. Topics include: The early days, 1960-62: London, Liverpool and Hamburg: Importing rhythm and blues and rockabilly from the States…real rock and roll bands—what a concept! Watch out, world! The heady days of 1963: Don’t look now, but these guys just might be more than great cover bands…and they are becoming very popular…Beatlemania takes off. We can write songs; 1964: the rock and roll band as a creative force. John and Paul, their yin and yang-like personal and musical differences fueling their creative tension, discover that two heads are better than one. The Stones, meanwhile, keep cranking out covers, and plot their conquest of America, one riff at a time. The middle periods, 1965-66: For the boys from Liverpool, waves of brilliant albums that will last forever—every cut a memorable, sing-along winner. While for the Londoners, an artistic breakthrough with their first all--original record. Mick and Keith’s tempestuous relationship pushes away band founder Brian Jones; the Stones are established as a force in the music world. Prisoners of their own success, 1967-68: How their popularity drove them to great heights—and lowered them to awful depths. It’s a long way from three chords and a cloud of dust.

  • PATTO – the JOHN HALSEY INTERVIEW
    PATTO – the JOHN HALSEY INTERVIEW Patto, apart from being one of the finest (purely subjective, of course) bands this country ever produced, were not blessed with good fortune. Forever on the verge of making it really big, they broke up after six years of knocking on the door and finding no-one home. Subsequently, two of their number died while the other two were involved in a terrible car smash which left one with severe physical injuries and the other with severe mental problems. Drummer John Halsey is now the only Patto member who could possible give us an interview. Mike Patto and Ollie Halsall are both gone, while bassist Clive Griffiths apparently doesn't even recall being in a band! Despite bearing the scars of the accident (Halsey walks with a pronounced limp), John was only too pleased to submit to a Terrascopic grilling - an interview which took place in the wonderful Suffolk pub he runs with his wife Elaine. Bancroft and I spent a lovely afternoon and evening with the Halseys, B & B'd in the shadow of a 12th Century church cupboard and returned to London the next morning with one of the most enjoyable interviews either of us has ever done. John Halsey: I started playing drums because two mates who lived in my road in North Finchley (N. London), where I'm from, wanted to form a group. This was years and years ago, 1958, 1959. Want to see the photo? PT: Oh, look at that! 1959! Me, with a microphone inside me guitar that used to go out through me Mum's tape recorder, and if you put 'Record' and 'Play' on together, it'd act like an amplifier.

And for Laura Ingram Ellis: as much as I wanted this dissertation to spring forth from my head fully formed, like Athena from Zeus’s forehead, it did not happen that way. It happened one sentence at a time, some more excruciatingly wrought than others, and you were there for every single sentence.

Comments from the Chair First of all, greetings to you all and I hope you enjoy the festive period Things are definitely looking more optimistic for the new year with more vaccines becoming ready for distribution. I know that some of our members have already had their first jab, so things are definitely going in the right direction. It is important not to get too far ahead of ourselves as it will be a huge undertaking to get everyone vaccinated before we can return to something approaching normal life. With this in mind, the Committee has decided that we need to hold the AGM that has been held over since June. Obviously, we cannot have a face-to-face meeting so we will be holding a 'virtual' AGM on Friday February 5th 2021 at 2 pm. We will be sending out all the relevant documentation required in mid-January by email and by post to give you all plenty of time to scrutinise them. The virtual meeting will be held via Zoom and every member is invited to join. We want to encourage as many members as possible to join and we can offer help if you need it. Phil has kindly offered to help members who are new to Zoom the week before the AGM. Further details will follow. By the time you read this, the latest TAT newsletter will have been sent out and you can also book Introduction to Zoom sessions via a link in this latest edition.
