   About Ticket to Ride
TICKET TO RIDE The Ultimate Beatles Tribute Band ..................... It’s Beatlemania all over again. Ticket To Ride is on target with fantastic guitars, drumming that will rock your world, and prolific vocals. If you were a crazed screaming victim of Beatlemania, now it’s possible to set the dial on your time machine and revisit America’s beloved Beatle era. There is nothing understated about this group. Imitators are plentiful but when the tribute is taken to heart, it produces great art that will make you feel an emotion you have never felt before. Ticket To Ride operates on a deeper level, bringing a much greater reward. Their performance induces a state of consciousness, which relives that frenzied point in time. Whether burning slow or brimming with volume, every song breathes that Liverpuldian invasion all over again.............. Ticket To Ride makes it obvious that their beat is far more than just another Beatles tribute compilation. This band pleases every generation with their nostalgic British reverberation. You can now revisit such hit singles like “I Saw Her Standing There," “Help,” “Day Tripper”, “Lady Madonna,” and more. Their captivating quality kicks off a melodious river of sound inspiring gyrations across the dance floor and in the audience alike........................ Founding Ticket To Ride member Gary Gwin, emulates John Lennon with a solemn charm so distinctive of Lennon himself. While chiming chords with subdued strings, Gwin’s guitar speaks a captivating refrain. He plays equally well to the tune of a ballad, just as when he cranks out that rock n roll, and the bent strings of Gwins guitar blend perfectly with Gwin’s equally captivating vocals. Listen as his vocals bleed the more heartfelt soulful sound, reminiscent of his Fab Four character. He plays them all, but on any guitar, his rich tunes and vocal contribution recaptures the thrill. Enjoyment is an absolute given while listening to Gwin as he executes that true Beatle sound. Gwin makes his tribute to Lennon’s musical icon in Ticket To Ride a top-notch performance.......................... Mike “Roscoe” Rouseculp on bass guitar portrays Paul McCartney in true character. With Beatlesque animation Rouseculp pushes his own harmonic boundaries. Paul McCartney is vivid in Rouseculp’s portrayal as he whips his hair all over his face with that poppy abandon so like the memorable McCartney legend. His alluring charisma entrances the audience, and when you mix that charisma with his bass playing, it’s an absolute elixir. The more than ample power of his throat screaming vocals defies the mediocrity of similar tributes. Watch as he switches from playing guitar with his left to his right hand, an amazing challenge, pulled off with ease. You’ll find Rouseculp to be a contagious shot of adrenaline, guaranteed to make the total Ticket To Ride sound your high point...................... Tom Brooks on lead guitar as the reticent George Harrison brings out an irresistible hint of sweet nostalgia that really rocks out. Totally focused and making every note matter, Brooks knows how to compliment the group as only Harrison once did. You’ll feel free to let loose when he tears up those guitar strings. Possessing a unique vocal talent, which recreates Harrison’s signature formula, Brooks lifts the veil to reveal the depth of such a distinctive rock superstar. What precision, this man’s talent is a pleasure to behold. Feel free to indulge, cause you will find no disappointment here, Brooks is pure class all the way. To the delight of every audience, Brooks reaps the admiration of fans with his astonishing; quality recreations wherever you see Ticket to Ride perform.................... Twenty-Five year music veteran Pat Kierstead features as the riveting Ringo Starr. This Ringo is a ringer for holding it all together with his poppy, infectious beat. Should his in sync rhythm not put you over the top as a fan, his exceptional vocal enthusiasm will. His tonality and clarity combined with his perfected drumming, exceeds expectations. Kierstead provides a visual extravaganza you’ll want to witness for yourself, a definite treat for audiences new and old. His beat provides the ability to make you not only hear it, but also feel it and relive it all over again. Reap the distinct pleasureful entertainment you long for as you watch this Starr bring it all home. Kierstead completes that total tribute sound of Ticket To Ride like no other can do. Wow!................................. Who is filling in the orchestra blanks? Rumored to be some superhero that is incredible, amazing, and spectacular, it turns out to be Mike ‘Too Tall’ Calvert, able to clear every stanza with a single bound. This man’s talent is nothing shy of astounding. Incredible, amazing and spectacular indeed, he fills an order too tall for the average bear. You’ll be impressed with this musician’s knowledge, and skill as he goes to work immersing the audience in that total Liverpool sound, we know and love so well. He’s got it all going on and what’s not to love. Never has such a compliment been given to any band as it is in this one mans skill. He is icing on the cake, a totally awesome tribute to the tribute band of Ticket To Ride............................ Climb aboard because now you can join the “revolution” and travel back to where it all began by way of Ticket To Ride’s ultimate Beatles tribute band. Their sound will take you down a “long and winding road”, through the “octopus’s garden” and then it’s “across the universe” on a “magical mystery tour”. You’ll enjoy riding in a “yellow submarine” after “a hard days night”, or just sit back and let the sound of Ticket To Ride take you “here there and everywhere”. If you’ve not seen Ticket To Ride, see them today! No matter where you set the dial on your time machine Ticket To Ride’s tribute makes for a smashing trip......Thank you Candie for writing this bio!..   I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)

Thank you for the awesome show at
the Fraze Pavillion a couple days ago.
It was a walk back in time with my best
friend I saw the Beatles with in 1964.
You are the best I have heard yet and
when you came out in the Sgt. Peppers
clothes it blew me away! The Beatles
would be very pleased. Sharon:)
