City Barbeque Food for Thought Series: Beatlemania in America
Tuesday, January 21, 2025
6:30 pm - 8:30 pm
Dr. Burke Miller of the NKU History and Geography Department returns to kick off the 12th-annual City Barbeque Food for Thought Series to discuss The Beatles.
When the Beatles launched their invasion of the U.S. in 1964, few fans foresaw how the group’s unprecedented popularity would reshape not only the music industry but society itself. Join us in listening to some Beatles’ favorites and figuring out what they tell us about 1960s America.
