If you’ve been in Austin for any amount of time, and especially if you’ve called Austin home for a decade or few, you’re no doubt familiar with the #9 Orchestra, a group of musicians from a myriad of backgrounds who come together at least once a year to perform the songs of the Beatles and John Lennon. For Beatlemaniacs of any generation, it’s a night of beauty and celebration.
Now celebrating their 35th year, the group, led by veteran musician and East Austin Recording co-owner Stephen Doster, has “come together” in the studio to record Doster’s new song “Goodness,” a tender and emotionally gripping love song keeping in the orchestra’s tradition and mission statement, recorded and mixed at EAR and appropriately mastered at Abbey Road Studios in London.
The #9 Orchestra performs this Saturday, November 29th at 3Ten ACL Live.
