Locals, music fans and Eurovision pilgrims are invited to enjoy free live music every day during the Eurovision period at The Beatles Story’s Fab4 Café. You’re invited to support and celebrate local music in a line-up of events curated in partnership with The Jacaranda. 

These events are not ticketed and are completely free to attend – simply turn up and experience Liverpool’s local music scene with us.

On Saturday 13th May in our Fab4 Cafe at the Albert Dock you can enjoy performances from:

11am - Keyside - Keyside are at the forefront of the emerging Liverpool scene. Hailing from the Mersey delta their sound takes influence from bands such as, The La’s, The Smiths and a nod towards The Police - all delivered through a decidedly unapologetic scouse filter. ‘A sound that creates a potent brew, which is able to take you out of a darkened sweaty basement and into the fresh fields of festival season’. - Liverpool Noise 
The band have gained quite the reputation in the city after supporting some of the most exciting names in the city and gigging in top venues including the O2 Academy and The Arts Club. Their sound has been described as ‘breezy and jangly yet hard to pin down whilst all being delivered with poise and confidence’. - Halfway 2 knowhere

2pm - The Stanleys - emerging from Wigan, a small industrial town just outside Manchester in the North of England, Stanleys are the next in a long line of illustrious musicians to emerge from the town. Bands and artists ranging from George Formby Senior and Junior to The Verve, Starsailor to The Lathums are proud to call Wigan home, eventually taking their poignant songwriting across the rest of the country and Stanleys are set to follow in their footsteps. 
 Perhaps there’s something about hearing a regional accent singing in full flow that’s endearing, or their jangly riffs and subtle drum beats reminiscent of other great North West bands such as The Smiths or The La’s. Some would argue the recognisable relatable stories told by front man Tom Concannon is the focal point of the band, with Jake Dorsman (guitar), Harry Ivory (bass) and Rob Hilton (drums and backing vocals) completing the line up. But ultimately, it is a combination of all these things that have seen Stanleys make their mark on the North West scene so quickly. 
 Performing at The Lathums’ sold-out show at O2 Victoria Warehouse, as well as sold out shows at O2 Ritz with Jamie Webster and The Lottery Winners; all on top of selling out their own Manchester headline show in a matter of minutes, Stanleys have a strong-hold on the North West scene. And it’s now only a matter of time before the rest of the country are hanging onto every word. - Gigs and Tours
