Founded in 2003, Classic Albums Live has quickly earned a stellar reputation for perfectly recreating classic rock albums in its entirety, reproduced to be as true to the original recording as possible, and without costumes or impersonators. The musicians go to great lengths to faithfully recreate every sound on the original album live on stage, note for note, cut for cut. The concert includes the Abbey Road LP performed in its entirety followed by a set of Beatles classic hits from albums such as Help, Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band and the White Album, to name a few. In 2019, Abbey Road marks its 50th Anniversary! $25, $35 199 Chambers Street. Click here. 8PM
