The Beatnix is an Australian Beatles tribute band. It is amongst the longest running Beatles tribute shows in the world.[1]

History

The concept for the band was conceived and assembled in March 1980 by founding member Tony Dean as a live performance entity. Through the years band membership has rolled over.

The Beatnix show includes fully authentic musical instruments similar to those used by The Beatles. These include guitars by Gretsch, Höfner, Rickenbacker and Gibson, Vox AC30 guitar amplifiers and a Vox AC50 bass amplifier with a T60 bass cabinet. The drums are identical to the ones used by Ringo Starr a 1960s model Ludwig Black Oyster Pearl kit. They perform with a range of early period Beatle costumes, including Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band outfits.

The Beatnix Show has performed internationally with seasons in Hong Kong, Malaysia, Bangkok and New Zealand. Domestically from large venues (ARL Grand Final at the Stadium Australia 100,000+ people) to smaller bookings (50 people in a back garden setting in Surry Hills)
