Ep 15: Something About the Breakup of the Beatles

This week’s episode of Something Will Happen is all about the breakup of the Beatles. Melissa is joined again by Emily as they discuss the tension, feelings, and conflict that led to the end of the most celebrated band of all time. 

The story is told in chronological order of how each member of the band decided to leave the group, starting with Ringo escaping to a yacht on the sea and ending with Paul announcing the split. They dive into how the building tension within the band affected each member differently. 

Melissa and Emily also discuss the songs that came from each member reflecting on this time and their feelings on the situation. The individual personalities of each Beatle shines through their work and how they handled such a difficult time in their lives.  

Although the end of something is never easy, Melissa and Emily remind listeners that the music has endured the test of time. The love for the Beatles and their music lives on. The Abbey Road on the River community does their part to share the experiences of the music and the connection to each other through it every year. We hope to see you there!
