Paul McCartney

Saturday, October 25 | 8pm

Generally acknowledged to be one of the most popular entertainers in the world today, Sir Paul McCartney was born James Paul McCartney in Liverpool in 1942.

Alongside John Lennon, he was half of one of the world's most successful songwriting teams in history. He is a singer and multi-instrumentalist in The Beatles.

As a solo artist, he formed Wings in August 1971, and in 1977 released Mull Of Kintyre, which remained the UK's highest selling single until 1984. In the 1980s he collaborated with Elvis Costello, and in 1991 released his first classical work, the Liverpool Oratorio. Since then he has released a wide range of albums in a variety of styles, and has undertaken a number of world tours.

At the 2014 Grammy Awards, Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr once again took the stage together to perform a song from McCartney's latest album New, making it their first performance together since 2009. Earlier in the show, McCartney was joined on stage by Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic and Pat Smear to accept their award for Best Rock Song for a track he had written with the former Nirvana band members, “Cut Me Some Slack.”

The Guinness Book of Records has recognised his many and varied contributions to the music industry and lists him as the most successful musician and composer in popular music history.
