Lauded Beatles tribute act The Fab Faux will celebrate their tenth anniversary with a performance at New York’s Radio City Music Hall on September 20. The gig arrives just a few days after the group appears on Late Night with Conan O'Brien on September 12. For its tenth anniversary concert, the quintet will focus on The Beatles' psychedelic period, specifically the years 1966-1968. In that short span of time The Beatles helped stretch the boundaries of pop-rock, thanks to singles like "Paperback Writer"/"Rain" and  "All You Need is Love," as well as classic albums like Revolver, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, The Yellow Submarine and The Magical Mystery Tour.  

The show is most high-profile New York appearance for the Fab Faux, who recently sold-out the Beacon Theater with a tribute to Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. The group features a number of familiar faces, including Will Lee (Late Show with David Letterman), Jimmy Vivino (Late Night with Conan O’Brien), Rich Pagano (Rosanne Cash/Ray Davies), Jack Petruzzelli (Joan Osborne/Rufus Wainwright) and Frank Agnello (Phoebe Snow/Marshall Crenshaw). With Vivino scheduled to move to Los Angeles when Conan O’Brien takes over The Tonight Show next year, The  Fab Faux will likely tour less frequently in the foreseeable future.

The group’s next show will take place at San Diego, CA’s Spreckels Theatre on June 7. Looking ahead, The Fab Faux will also perform the “White Album at Philadelphia’s Keswick Theatre on October 25.
