Donovan

Legendary Singer-Songwriter
In Concert & Meditation Talk

It is a great honour to welcome back the legendary Donovan to our stage for this historic anniversary. After meeting the Beatles in 1965, he rapidly became part of their inner circle – regarded as a close friend and musical peer – scoring 14 major worldwide chart hits. In 1968, he accompanied the Beatles on their spiritual quest to India. While there he shared his guitar technique with John, Paul and George *as manifested in such Beatles recordings later that year as “Dear Prudence”, ” Mother Nature’s Son” and “While My Guitar Gently Weeps”. In April 2009, he reunited with Paul & Ringo at a TM fundraiser in NYC. Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2012, Donovan continues to be a potent musical force – creating fresh music such as his brand-new album “Shadows Of Blue,” recorded in Nashville. Donovan will be joining us all weekend, for a talk “Meditation and the White Album”, performing in concert on Saturday afternoon, and joining Liverpool on stage for more musical highlights on both Saturday and Sunday evenings. Some of his classics you can expect to hear are “Mellow Yellow”, “Sunshine Superman”, “Hurdy Gurdy Man”, and “Atlantis”. Photo Credit: Michael Collopy.
