The Sun Kings

About Me


Ever wonder what The Beatles might have sounded like had they reunited?
For nine years the Bay Areas own Sun Kings have been thrilling packed clubs with their musical tribute to The Beatles around Northern California. Their attention to detail is uncanny and their energy reminiscent of the joy and excitement felt at a real Beatles concert. Every member of The Sun Kings has been a huge Beatles fan since childhood. As they pursued their individual musical endeavors, pre-Sun Kings, they all counted the The Beatles as their biggest influence. To be part of this musical tribute feels as natural as walking to them. Dont expect to see John, Paul, George, or Ringo look-alikes. Do expect to hear your favorite Beatles songs performed brilliantly, as youve come to know and love them. And of course, expect to have a FAB-ulous time!
The Sun Kings repertoire contains about 100 Beatles songs spanning The Beatles entire musical career from She Loves You to I am the Walrus to Side 2 of Abbey Road.
