The Beatles foi uma famosa banda de rock britânica formada em Liverpool, 1960, e um dos atos mais comercialmente bem-sucedidos e aclamados da história da música popular. A partir de 1962, o grupo era formado por John Lennon (guitarra rítmica e vocal), Paul McCartney (baixo e vocal), George Harrison (guitarra solo e vocal) e Ringo Starr (bateria e vocal).
Enraizada do skiffle e do rock and roll da década de 1950, a banda veio mais tarde a assumir diversos gêneros que vão do folk rock ao rock psicodélico
