A Merseybeats performance is spectacular and pulsating experience, classic hits' Think Of You' 'Wishin & Hopin'

and 'Sorrow' are combined with emotive ballads and explosive pyrotechnic sets. 

Tony Crane and Billy Kinsley formed a group called “The Mavericks and played most of the major venues around Liverpool. Bob Wooler, famous booking agent and disc jockey at the Cavern saw The Mavericks perform, he approached Tony Crane asking if they would like a residency at the Cavern. Bob Wooler thought their name sounded too country and western, suggesting a change of name, Tony and Billy were happy and agreed this idea. After consultation and agreement with Bill Harry, owner of a Liverpool music paper titled Mersey Beat, Bob Wooler Re-named the group The Mersey Beats.

The Mersey Beats then became resident at the Cavern alongside The Beatles and still hold the record of appearing with The Beatles more than any other artistes.
