BeatleBrony, also used in the plural Beatle Bronies, is the collective pseudonym for several brony musicians. They collectively take Beatle songs and re-write the lyrics to fit into the My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic universe while keeping the music intact. They play most of the instruments on the songs. Their songs Little Octavia and The Night Before have each garnered over 20,000 views on YouTube as of May 22, 2012.
Style[]
The BeatleBronies' style is that of a cover band. They take famous and obscure songs by well-known British rock band The Beatles (and sometimes later-career songs by former Beatles members) and re-write the lyrics to fit into the overall My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic universe. Several early recordings of theirs used the instrumentals of the original songs, with re-recorded vocals. They soon switched to an almost entirely live approach with the actual members playing the instruments.
Band members[]
The BeatleBronies consist of several brony musicians from all around the world, most of whom have never met any of the others in real life. Some of them also produce original brony music on their own (clickable name redirects to Youtube page).
