BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND
Aztec Shawnee Theater presents:

Saturday January 11th, 7pm

After multiple sold out performances, The Trutones return to the Aztec to perform iconic tunes from the Beatles as well as many other artists from the British Invasion.

The British Invasion was a cultural phenomenon in the mid-1960s when British rock bands dominated the American music scene, and defined by these key elements:

Musical Style:

• Beat-driven pop-rock: This was the core sound of the Invasion, characterized by strong rhythms, catchy melodies, and often featuring three-part vocal harmonies.
• Influenced by American music: British bands drew heavily from American rock and roll, rhythm and blues, and even country music.
• Original songwriting: Many bands, especially the Beatles, wrote their own songs, bringing a fresh perspective to popular music.

Cultural Impact:

• Youth culture: The British Invasion coincided with a rise in youth culture and counterculture movements. The bands' rebellious image and energetic performances resonated with young audiences.
• Fashion and style: British bands popularized certain fashion trends, such as tailored suits, boots, and distinctive hairstyles.
• Social change: The Invasion's impact extended beyond music, influencing social attitudes and challenging traditional norms.

Key Bands:

• The Beatles: Undoubtedly the most influential band of the era, the Beatles revolutionized popular music with their innovative songwriting, harmonies, and experimental approach.
• The Rolling Stones: Known for their raw energy and blues-based sound, the Stones became icons of rock and roll rebellion.
• The Who: With their powerful performances and energetic stage presence, the Who established themselves as one of the leading rock bands of the era.
• The Kinks: The Kinks explored various musical styles, from pop and rock to folk and psychedelia.
• The Animals: The Animals gained popularity with their blues-rock sound and hits like "House of the Rising Sun."

Legacy:

The British Invasion had a profound and lasting impact on popular music. It paved the way for future generations of rock bands and helped to establish rock and roll as the dominant genre of the 20th century.
