Hype Events Presents...Jim Witter's The Long And Winding Road
Few can argue that the Beatles were the greatest rock/pop band of all time... their music shaped a decade and cut the trail to modern music today. But where did those incredible songs come from? What inspired one of history's most prolific pop song writing teams to come up with such timeless hits as Yesterday, A Hard Day's Night, Hey Jude, Let It Be and countless others. Get ready to take a trip down the “Long and Winding Road” and explore the sometimes tumultuous relationship of John Lennon and Paul McCartney, and some of the stories behind the songs that have been such a part of our lives. Jim Witter and his incredible band are our tour guides through this audio and visual Magical Mystery Tour into the minds of the legendary creator behind the Beatles biggest hits. Enjoy the Ride!
