"one of the world's premier Beatles cover bands"
-US News and World Report
"unquestionably expert at what they do"
-Indyweek

Since 2002, Abbey Road LIVE! has been rocking the music of the Beatles at clubs, theaters and festivals. Initially a tribute to the monumental Abbey Road album, the band has expanded its scope to include nearly 150 Beatles tunes, from all eras of the Fab Four’s career. From A Hard Day's Night to Hey Jude to Here Comes The Sun, an Abbey Road LIVE! show will have you singing along all evening along!

Abbey Road LIVE! is not your typical Beatle look-alike tribute act; don’t expect mop-top haircuts and vintage Rickenbacker guitars. Rather, this show is about bringing to life some of the more mature and complex Beatles material in a raw & spirited fashion, while remaining true to the original recordings. Combining attention to detail with a creative exuberance, the band always delights its audiences with its diverse repertoire of hits and more obscure favorites.

Caverns Of Gold Showcase Benefit
featuring Pink Eye, Lower Peaks, Why Why?, John Kirby Jr & the New Seniors
Friday, January 09
Show: 8 pm | Doors: 7 pm
The Orange Peel
All Ages - under 12 requires venue approval
Caverns of Gold began as a Bandcamp-exclusive compilation, bringing together nearly 280 bands from across the world who donated their music in support of WNC Hurricane Relief. What started as a one-time idea became proof of something bigger—that when music communities come together, even the deepest caverns of darkness can be illuminated with the golden light of solidarity and hope. You can still find the compilation, Caverns of Gold: A Benefit for WNC Hurricane Relief, exclusively on Bandcamp at cavernsofgold.bandcamp.com.

Now, the spirit of that project takes the stage. On January 9, 2026, Caverns of Gold comes to The Orange Peel with a showcase featuring members of the core group of organizers who helped bring the original compilation to life. The night will feature electrifying sets from four of Asheville’s most dynamic acts: PINKEYE, Lower Peaks, Why Why?, and John Kirby Jr & the New Seniors. Each band brings its own energy and vision, from fierce punk urgency to indie experimentation and heartfelt songwriting.

This show also carries forward Caverns of Gold’s commitment to community care. In partnership with ABCCM (Asheville Buncombe Community Christian Ministry), the event will host a warm clothing drive to support neighbors in need this winter. Audience members are encouraged to bring coats, jackets, hats, gloves, and other essentials to help ABCCM’s vital outreach work across Western North Carolina.
