They were known as one of the most famous bands in the world. Today, they are still celebrated for their beloved music from the generation that grew up them to the generation that their music was passed down to.

John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr formed their famous band, known as the Beatles, in England in 1960. Described as being rooted in skiffle beat and 1950s rock and roll, the band was huge in pop music's evolution and in the development of the counterculture of the 1960s. The core trio, Lennon, McCartney, and Harrison began playing together in 1958 with the group going through a series of drummers before asking Starr to join them in 1962. They built their reputation playing clubs in Liverpool and Hamburg. They released their first hit, "Love Me Do", in their homeland in late 1962. Their intense popularity grew into a fan frenzy dubbed "Beatlemania", and they acquired their nickname "the Fab Four".
