Apple Scruffs

Just like Laila, Skylar, and Katie, Anna is interested in analyzing the Beatles. However, as a classical musician, Anna approaches the group (and our boy George especially) from a unique point of view. Listen to our interview with Anna and learn about how George can rightfully be compared to some of the great composers of history. You can follow Anna on Twitter or Instagram @harrisonologist! We will also keep you all updated on when her article is released sometime this year. And thank you to our great editor, Fizz! Check out her duo Lola's new single, "The Stars Go Home and Cry."

In this episode, the Scruffs catch up on Laila and Skylar's adventures at Beatlesfest (and their love for Chris O'Dell). They also discuss the next Beatles reissue, Revolver. This album marked a huge period of transition for both the Beatles as a whole and for George individually. Listen in as Laila, Skylar, and Katie talk about where 1966 George was in his life and share their favorite George moments from the album. Huge thank you to Fizz for editing this episode!

In true Apple Scruffs style, Skylar, Laila, and Katie got as close to the Beatles as they could in June. Skylar went to May Pang's film premiere, Skylar and Laila saw (and interacted with!) Paul and Ringo, and Katie went to London and Liverpool, where she had the amazing experience of staying in George's childhood home. Connect with the Scruffs!

Named after a group of fans who used to wait outside the Beatles' offices and studios, Skylar, Laila, and Katie are modern-day Apple Scruffs. In this George-Harrison-centric podcast, they talk about everyone's favorite mystic bitch, the Quiet One who actually had a lot to say, the Pisces who could do cocaine and meditate in the same breath. In this first episode, meet each Scruff and hear about their personal history with the Beatles and their thoughts on each member. Connect with the Scruffs on social media!
