About Something About George – The George Harrison Story

All Things Must Pass, they say. Well, George Harrison's name will live on forever.

This brand-new show will answer the question 'where does life take you after being in the greatest band in the history of the world?'

Something About George tells the truly remarkable tale of one of music's most understated icons.

Featuring beautiful songs like My Sweet Lord, Something, Handle With Care, and incredible solo material and music from rock'n'roll's greatest supergroup, The Travelling Wilburys – not forgetting a few classics from The Beatles.

Starring actor and musician Daniel Taylor.
