The Liverbirds performing 'Diddley Daddy' at German TV Show 'Beat Club' in 1965. The Beat Club Logo is a trade mark of & under licence from Transport for London In the early '60s, four friends from Liverpool formed a band. But this is not the ‘fab four’ story we know . . . The Liverbirds, comprising Mary, Sylvia, Valerie, and Pamela, were the first ever all-female Rock'n'Roll band. Despite John Lennon's early skepticism at the Cavern Club, where he declared 'girls don't play guitars,' they embraced the challenge. Within just five short years, they conquered tough crowds at the Star Club, toured stadiums, recorded two hit albums, and collaborated with legends such as the Kinks, The Rolling Stones, and Chuck Berry. In their newly released book, “The Liverbirds,“ surviving members Mary McGlory and Sylvia Saunders, share their full and remarkable story. The book, published by Faber on March 14th as both a print and audio version, captures a lost era of liberation and Rock'n'Roll, highlighting their thriving years in the vibrant Merseybeat music scene. It’s also a story of enduring friendship spanning decades. The Liverbirds made a comeback at the end of 2023, welcoming Molly-Grace Cutler and Lisa Wright, known from the successful Liverpool musical “Girls Don't Play Guitars.“ The band recorded their new album in Hamburg, where it all began as well as in Brighton. The first single, “Diddley Daddy,“ is mixed and mastered in thrilling DOLBY ATMOS, promising an exciting experience for fans and audiophiles. The Liverbirds' revival coincides with the resumption of the musical in September 2024. The Liverbirds are Mary McGlory (bass), Sylvia Saunders (drums), Molly-Grace Cutler (vocals & guitar) and Lisa Wright (vocals & guitar) Additional guitars by Kerstin Sund Produced by Tim Hellmers & Alexander Seidl for Aviator-Management Engineered by Justin Niestroj, Nico Klaukien @ Elevate Studios, Hamburg Additional recording by Alex Gordon @ Brighton Electric Studios, Brighton Mixed by Tilmann Ilse @ Home Studios, Hamburg Mastering by Raphael Jozsa @ Aviator-Management Filming & Video Editing by Andreas Jacobs @ Aviator-Management (c) 2024 Aviator-Management - all rights reserved Follow us on: Instagram: TikTok: @liverbirdsband?_t=8kCyufD4K13&_r=1 YouTube: #TheLiverbirds #beatclub #peanutbutter #diddleydaddy
