Recap of 2019 Festival

This year's festival looked back 50 years to 1969. That was the year The Beatles' Abbey Road album was released in September. Entering popular music for the first time that year were memorable songs like Let It Be, Something, Come Together, and Here Comes the Sun. That year was also the year that thousands gathered in New York for the  Woodstock. music festival.  The Who released their rock opera, "Tommy" that year. Special tribute concerts will be played from some of Abbey Road on the River's favorite bands.

Classicstone and Juke Box Beatles played tribute to the Abbey Road album. The band Magic Bus commemorated Woodstock with a tribute concert, and LBB Experience paid homage to Crosby Stills & Nash. Shut Up & Drive, a band from Cincinnati played tribute to Led Zeppelin. Fans of the Bohemian Rhapsody got a Queen tribute by the Classicstone's.

There's so much more Abbey Road on the River fun! Stay tuned for more updates on the 2020 Abbey Road on the River festival.
