“Remembering the Fab Four”

That’s what this Beatles tribute band is all about. From their convincing Liverpool accents with Beatles wit to their pointed Cuban heel boots and authentic vintage instruments, what you’ll experience during their show is pure magic. It’s like seeing the Beatles in concert for the first time!

The four lads joined in 1993 and have performed more than 1100 shows across the United States and abroad. Over the years they have had the privilege of sharing the stage with such notable acts as the Beach Boys, Jay Leno, Chicago, Three Dog Night, Carrie Underwood, Glen Campbell, Badfinger, America, the Mandrel Sisters, the Temptations, the Commodores, the Buckinghams and others. Among their many highlights would include performing at the Nokia Sugarbowl in New Orleans for a national TV audience, being the first act to ever perform at the USANA amphitheater in Salt Lake City, Utah and their 21 shows at the Shanghai Music Festival in May 2005

Some of their many satisfied clients would include: The US Air Force, US Navy, Boy Scouts of America, Coldwell-Banker, Chevron, Sinclair Oil Corp., Wells Fargo, Lion’s Clubs of America, National Order of Police, National Order of Firefighters, Shanghai Music Festival, Bowl Games of America, The Puyallup Fair, The Utah State Fair, The Big Fresno Fair and the Macon Symphony.

The talented individuals who have “Come Together” as Imagine are:

Tom Coburn (John Lennon):   Growing up in Manhattan Beach, CA, Tom had little on his mind besides surfing and baseball until February 9th, 1964 when he saw the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan show.  At 16 he began performing in the LA club scene with his first band “Mother’s Pride.  In 1970 he began a 25 year career with Delta Airlines but was always loyal to his ‘other job’ as a musician. His love for music and stage led him to take early retirement in 1995 to promote Imagine.  Paying tribute to the Beatles has taken him on a journey beyond his wildest dreams.  As he plays the piano, guitar, bass and harmonica he still pinches himself. “I am the luckiest person I know”.  Tom lives in Gardnerville NV near Lake Tahoe.

Richard Fazzi (Paul McCartney):  “Born and raised in San Jose, California, Rich anchors stage right with his incredible performance of Sir Paul and as luck would have it, he is a natural lefty. As is the case with so many other musicians, he was inspired by the four lads he watched on television that fateful Sunday evening in February of 1964.   A veteran of the tribute circuit, he now makes his home in Clifton Park NY and as an accomplished skater and hockey player he is always cheering his beloved San Jose Sharks.  Bass, guitar and piano are his instruments of choice and he plays with Imagine.

Brad Armstrong (George Harrison):   This Utah native has been instrumental in developing Imagine into the versatile band they are today.  Classically trained, he has written the musical scores for concerts with professional and youth symphonies. Growing up in a house full of Beatlemaniacs he claims, “It was like a 24/7 Beatles trivia show”. He loves touring with Imagine and it is apparent by the never-ending smile on his face.  Called Darby by his friends, Brad is a real estate agent in the Salt Lake City area as well as a versatile musician. He plays guitar, bass, piano and recorder with Imagine and has been a part of the Salt Lake music scene for years with his affinity for fretless bass.

Mark Robinette (Ringo Starr): Began his musical career in San Jose, California, playing professionally at age 14.  His eclectic musical tastes have motivated him to learn many instruments and many styles. He has played with the Mamas and Papas, Natalie Cole, Frankie Avalon, Bobby Vinton, Donny Osmond, and the Temptations, to name a few. He has played with the touring casts of Broadway shows including Chicago, The King and I, and Annie. His company, Accent Productions, produces entertainment events around the country, including the Orange Bowl Halftime show in Miami. He is in demand as a music director, arranger, and teacher. The experience of studying Beatles songs note for note has given him great respect for the craft of songwriting. He resides with his family in beautiful Kaysville UT.
