REO Brothers: More Than A Cover Band I’ve been watching lately videos on RUclips and Facebook of a family band called REO Brothers from the Philippines covering popular music from the 60’s, 70’s, and the 80’s. The band is composed of four brothers (sometimes 5) from Tacloban City from the Visayas region of the Philippines. Their covers of popular songs of The Bee Gees, America, Simon & Garfunkel , Cliff Richards, etc. are really well made and totally enjoyable. But their covers of Beatles songs are the ones who really got me hooked on these young men. Having came of age in the early part of the 80’s and having been exposed to the sound of The Beatles through my good high school friends, I could tell you that this group really captured that special sound that made The Beatles one of the best rock and roll bands of all time. The soaring and tight harmonies are really outstanding and if you are an avid Beatles fan you will know that they really worked hard to capture the nuances of each song. And knowing their humble beginnings you will love them more. I will not bore you with all the details on how they started but a quick google search will lead you to believe that they indeed deserve all the success they are enjoying right now. It is easy to dismiss them as a mere cover band but the hard work they put on every song is really remarkable. Those tight harmonies and playing the instruments very close to the original for sure did not come by accident. It can only come from long hours of research and practice. Many have natural born talents but it will take hard work and dedication to harness them into good use. These young men are indeed testaments to the power of dogged perseverance. I will be a fan for a long time.
@@ceferinoramos5912 you are witnessing an internet phenomenon here ... there is NO other tribute band on the planet that can do what these lads can and all LIVE ... GUARANTEED.
Thank you! I was indeed hooked with this band. Aside from how they are talented in playing the instruments, their harmony is very captivating. I am thankful becoz they love sharing their videos so that we can enjoy!
To me you are the best Beatles band I've ever seen !!! And note that I've been playing Beatles since 1964, I know all about Beatles and I play all their songs, I know Beatles very well, I saw Paul live ... I know hundreds of Beatles covers, right here in Brazil for dozens ... But nothing I've seen and heard so far compares to you ... So congratulate REO Brothers, it really impressed me !!! I hope you continue on this path of excellence ... To me You are perfect !!! We love Fab Four ...
Love this group! I attended your recent concert in San Francisco and happened to be next to a lovely Caucasian lady. She proudly shared that she had watched all three of your California shows, even making the trip to Sacramento. In her opinion, you guys outshone the Beatles! Congratulations on a successful show, and here’s to even more success in your career!” 🎶👏🌟
i was in this country for many years, they are the best in term of music- They are one of many people on earth that happy with their lives that why the way they performe seem that they are so happy---how about all of us ?
I fell inlove in the covers first before I searched for the beatles songs. Now a 20 year old me became fascinated to the beatles. The Reo brothers introduced me to the beatles. 💛
Nakakalungkot isipin na nasaan Ang million views nito? Puro mga taga ibang Bansa pa nakaka apriciate sa kanila ..napaka talented nila ..sisikat sila Lalo pag pinangunahan NG Pinoy na e like at e share sila ..deserving Naman po sila ..hehehe ..
Yun nga ms gusto nla mga basurang kanta ewan sa mga pinoy haizt sa fb shinashare q tlga ito sobrang galing ...mga banyaga p tlga nag aappreciate ng mga kanta nla kalungkot
@@sl0wh4nd81 - I didn't scream but was po'd at those who did. Couldn't hear them at all and was deaf for a week. It was like having a jet landing on your head!
I was born in 1963 i grew up listening to the Beatles my uncle had a lot of their records. I just wanted to say you have captured the spirit of their music. Beautiful 💖💖🎸🎸🥁🥁😊😊🥂🥂
1st time i heard their song "I saw her standing there" in 1960s in the Manila i was curious who's that group and found out the Beatles from England! I'm now 74 yrs old i still love their songs vry much!!...Jesse, Glendale,CA
Found these boys by accident. They are tremendous talents! Wow! Is there a song they can't do? I seriously doubt it. God Bless them! Im 68, so I guess I'm their oldest fan! 😍
Yeah, on the Stereo Remaster from 2009 you can hear Paul really cut one of the lines short, it actually sounds pretty rough (can't tell on the mono remaster though). There's an outtake where John mentions how hard the song is to sing, I believe.
If I Fell, my favorite. I don't know about the 2009 remaster mentioned above, but the harmony never fails to astonish me - this in addition to the rest of the collective talent of the Beatles. There will never be another time that a group like the Beatles could emerge. How lucky we are. I cannot think how less rich our lives wold be without them.
The brothers' rendition of "If I Fell" never fails to give me the chills no matter how many times I listen to it. Love all their covers but there are quite a few that are very special and magical, IIF is one of them.
Hey, REO fans all over the world, you can now hear their Beatles' Love Songs cover on *Audiomack app.* Download the Audiomack app on Play Store, then download their song from the app, so that you can play it anytime, anywhere on your phone, while you're Offline. It's Free, and the sound quality is good!
you guys knock it out of the park with your playing and vocals every time I listen. I shut my eyes and feel transported to the 60's immediately. simply incredible.
Wie man solch großartige Musiker und Riesentalente, die mit überschaubarem Aufwand die beeindruckendsten Ergebnisse erzielen, disliken kann, ist mir vollkommen unverständlich!
I love the Beatles and I've always had tears in my eyes with the Beatles ,but I also had tears in my eyes because it's sung so great and touching .I don't touch anything so quickly ,except Elvis ,Beatles ,and Julian Lennon from John ,where I also have tears .Wow you have managed to touch hearts ,I wish you very good luck ,health and love in your whole life .
alot of people live in the era of Beatles, i mean the elders accidentally came here to hear some Beatles song, also my gramps he said you guys are really good.
As a sometimes professional musica for 60+ years, since the Beatles came to the world, you are the most accurate and musical corvers. Congratulation for your huge talents!
i believe Reo Bros are heaven sent. God created them for us to simply love music and entertain people all over the world like me amidst the on going covid pandemic or without, their music is truly impossible to resists, my heart is overwhelming with joy every time i watch them singing because their music is absolutely mind blowing or psychedelic...much love, God bless!!!
I admit they are good but they would even say they aren’t comparable to the Beatles vocally or instrumentality. The Fab Four come the closest but the originals there is and never will be any one ever to touch them and the talent they possessed.
Best of the Best in the World! Your Harmony gives me the chills!!! Thank You!!! Each one of You Have a Very Special part In This Group! It's So Beautiful!!! Love You Guys! Loves from Honolulu!!! God Bless you 10 fold!!!
There are many musicians who cover The Beatles, but they are great musicians who have a good impression of their singing and playing without any quirks!! And above all, their performance feels respect for The Beatles
I thanked RUclips for letting me know this band REO Brothers. They kept me sane during the hard lockdown in pandemic. Keep singing brothers. May God continue to guide and bless you more.
I have known some of the Philipines musicians, came to Thailand in the mid 60, someone like Tony Aquira, and they played so good the oldies stuff and including The Beatles...and now comes to the new generations and all of you happened to the world again, Gosh remind me of the happiness and joy of life 50 years ago...keep playing Great stuff..Brothers..Richard Tanapatt Rattana
When you're a good note for note, beat for beat Beatle band it says a lot to their loving fans, but when guys like Reo Brothers can capture the magic vibe like they do, it's because they feel, respect & love that magic The Beatles gave us. No doubt about it, these boys are extraordinary & absolutely outstanding!!!!
They were “Denied” Tour Visa to the US about six years ago.They were young Teens.The purpose was about a Tour Concert for Relief Donations to the devastating Super Typhoon that strucked their Island with 10,000 deaths. They looked so young, thin, and wearing just plain clothes during the US Embassy Interview in Manila.Probably, their looks didn’t pass the standards of the Interviewer.Maybe they look unorganized,untalented, poor-looking guys to the eyes of the Interviewer.Maybe the impression of the Interviewer, they will Hide upon entry to the US.Fortunately, due to the influence of the Organizers they were allowed entry to the US.If the US Embassy Personnel’s will see them today,maybe, they will be astonished by their credible skills, talent and performance.Sometimes it’s difficult to judge, look-down, underestimate ,someone with their outside looks.At the end, you will say “ Oh it’s amazing” !! Lesson : Never underestimate people with their race,color,size and outside-looks.There are people who are gifted with GOD given talents...
Absolutely right! The world is going through a really tough time right now. Time to reaccess how we judge people at face value, and find the compassion and love that we seem to have lost. I was born in CA US after WWII my Mom was born in Cebu. She would have been proud of you boys. I am so happy when I hear you sing. My Mom wouldn't let me go to the Hollywood Bowl to see The Beatles. I cried for days so she gave up and let me go to a "Doors" concert instead. Haha. She didn't know who they were. I saw them when I was 14 yrs. old at the "Anaheim Convention Center" across the street from Disneyland. Love your music.so talented!! MATAHUM!!
Very well said...from humble beginnings, look where they are now...very talented brothers indeed... May God bless you more, REO Brothers... You are an inspiration, proud to be a Filipino... I can watch & listen to your music all day long...❤️
They should have sent a video of themselves playing prior to their interview at the US Embassy, along with a link to their RUclips channel, or at the very least dressed up nicely. An interview in any situation, be it for a job, or an entry visa, necessitates preparation and looking your best. That’s just common sense.
Yes, they were initially denied a visa to enter the US. With the help of an immigration lawyer, they eventually got their US visa and were able to make it to New York and perform at the Madison Square Garden in the Yolanda fundraiser Concert "Pinoy Relief". Attorney Michael Gurfinkel said, “One of the issues is the boys have never been outside the Philippines before, which made getting the visa that much more difficult".
I can’t move on from my addiction to these lovely siblings. Since the end of their US TOUR, everyday i tune in to their video playlist, here at home, there in my workplace and everywhere.
Ignore mo nalang masaklap nito ang mga kababayan naten yung iba hindi lahat imbes na itaas ka HIHILAHIN KANG PABABA sad to say maraming ganyan sa politics nalang look mo mahirap yung nagawamong kabutihan hindi nakikita pero yung 1pag kakamali mo lang wasak lahat but pilipino are mabait mabibilang mo lang yung buzzer pero maganda rin ang BUZZER kase inaangat ka nyan
Years back halos banyaga ang nagcocoment dto at konti lng ang pinoy. Nagsimula dumami nung nag live cla nung april quarantine.. marahil ang target tlga nila is more on sa labas ng bansa n audience kaysa s pinoy.. kasi nga tayong pinoy mala talangka.. panisinin nio hashtag nila, walang anything about phil marahil gusto nila mangyari s alhorithm ay ma attract ang labas ng bansa lang.. just my opinion..
Thank You!!! You Guys blow my mind!!! You Sound So much like Beatles, Bee Gees, all!!! Amazing...you Never Seize to Amazing...You are All the Best of the Best!!!! I Love You guys...Love Your Sound...Loves from Honolulu!!!
I've always liked If I Fell. Just goosebumps... It's 1:30AM here. RUclips finally put you guys in my "recommended" maybe an hour ago. Eagles, Simon & Garfunkel, Beatles, Beach Boys... You guys are good. It's nice to hear the old songs done by young groups.
I didn't really "grow up" with the Beatles, but being 50 puts me way ahead (in years) of these boys. There have been hundreds of bands I know who copied the Fav 4, and the closest was the Beatlemania, until the REO brothers came... Musically, these boys right here are the closest you'll ever get to the real thing.
You all sing superbly on these Beatle songs..but anyone who’s played any music by The Beatles knows very well they can be quite quirky to perform..so I’d like to pay a compliment on your musicianship! Outstanding!!
I spend hours listening to REO Brothers and it's hard to stop, a show to hear who knows what it's like to make music and be humble. May GOD help us to promote these fabulous Filipino brothers. Hugs from Brasil.
I am so glad I found these guys singing my childhood favorite songs, which i used to listened only on the radio. Then, became our favorite past time when my younger brother learned to play a guitar. But with these talented guys, their songs now are in my favorite playlists which I used to listen everyday! Thanks to Reo Brothers! Hope I could be able to watch you performing live. After this Pandemic. God bless us all!
If you look up the word perfection you just may find it under REO Brothers! Just Beautiful guys! Don't know how the hell people gave you a thumbs down on this or any of your performances...
Just found you guys today 20th December 2020 Sunday fabulous been listening for 3 hours now its 18.45 evening from David England love this music guys don't stop
Dixie I can say almost close to perfection.The vocal harmonies,the blending, the instruments note for note deliberation.They’ve done it almost 95% ...that’s my grading system....what can I do....that’s it..
I've pointed out just how profoundly great you guys are to me, more times than I can remember...it's still true! Just phenomenal....I could listen to you play every Beatle song ever recorded...and when you got to the "last one" I'd want you to start over. You have also done so many other groups now, I've lost track, and each one is spot on as far as faithful recreation of the original. Can't sing your praises loud enough or long enough. Would love the opportunity to jam with you, but not gonna hold my breath on that one!LOL Am commenting here just so I can suggest that you maybe turn up the volume on the drums a notch...at least a half a notch.....the drums were an integral part of the original Beatles sound, and so important to making their "sound"...you have everything else 110% percent perfect...just need to hear the drums a tiny bit more. Love the rendition of "If I Fell" and all the others as well....can't praise you enough.

Welcome aboard guys 😁
My favorite British Rock Band in the 60's my favorite cover band of brothers in the Millennium REO bros superb!!
The bass player has a world class voice
Check out his own YT channel.
His tone changes according to the songs he sings.
very nice baritone
Most Filipino artist had world class voice.
Hard to sing while playing bass. This guy makes it easy

Congratulations on a successful show, and here’s to even more success in your career!” 🎶👏🌟
Who else believes "If I Fell" deserves to be its own stream, so more people can find it. You guys blew that out of the park! So freakin smooth.
Yep, their cover of IIF is very special. Whenever I listen to it, I get a lump in my throat.
I agree. If I Fell was flawless!!!
If i fell, probably my favorite among all their beatles cover. Then, you're gonna lose that girl, second.
Yes there rendition is out of charts,it should be what you suggest.
Yep, agree…C’mon, get that out there, boys!
i was in this country for many years, they are the best in term of music- They are one of many people on earth that happy with their lives that why the way they performe seem that they are so happy---how about all of us ?

I love to see the new generation carrying the torch of the stupendous music of the Beatles. Amazing musicianship.
Same as original band.. congrats REO brothers..i love your cover songs..❤❤❤

WONDERFUL! From an old woman who saw The Beatles live several times, that's a great compliment..
You heard them live?? Awesome!!
I saw Paul McCartney live, absolutely amazing. But to see the fab four together is a once in a lifetime experience, You are truly blessed
Lucky!
Did u scream like what we saw in the videos as well? That was soooo much fun!
@@sl0wh4nd81 - I didn't scream but was po'd at those who did. Couldn't hear them at all and was deaf for a week. It was like having a jet landing on your head!
I was born in 1963 i grew up listening to the Beatles my uncle had a lot of their records. I just wanted to say you have captured the spirit of their music. Beautiful 💖💖🎸🎸🥁🥁😊😊🥂🥂
From a Record Producer, you nailed it. Excellent harmony. Instruments on point. Great job guys.
The singer on the Hoffner bass did a smash up job, especially on Till There Was You. Compliments to the drummer as well.
You should hear him sing "The Way You look Tonight"
oh my God!! You sent me back to my teen years in the 1960's!!! Thank you sooooooo much!

I am 72 now, also a fan
@Nelly
Guess maybe you're their "oldest"fan 🤣 Their real good.,
We're the same age, but I like to hear them all the time...my favorite is the singer...if I am with my 20's I'll be his number 1 fan!
Im 70 y.o. And I’m a big beatles fan, these guys are amazing, and I’ve always watched them perform. Thanks a lot
me too same age with you, feel relax upon hearing their music.
Those harmonies on "If I Fell," wow! Even The Beatles had trouble recording that track.
I thought those high notes in chorus of if i fell were paul`s. And lower notes were john's. Correct me if i'm wrong.
Yeah, on the Stereo Remaster from 2009 you can hear Paul really cut one of the lines short, it actually sounds pretty rough (can't tell on the mono remaster though). There's an outtake where John mentions how hard the song is to sing, I believe.
"If I Fell" was always one of my favorites from The Beatles because of just that...the harmony.
Yes John sang the lower notes with Paul on the higher ones
If I Fell, my favorite. I don't know about the 2009 remaster mentioned above, but the harmony never fails to astonish me - this in addition to the rest of the collective talent of the Beatles. There will never be another time that a group like the Beatles could emerge. How lucky we are. I cannot think how less rich our lives wold be without them.
These covers made me appreciate the Beatles music like never before.
These gents are 100% perfect!!!
Excellent- it blows my mind that songs that will be 60 years old in a few more years still speak to young musicians and their listeners today!
I think the real Beatles might be impressed. These young men sound more like their old selves than they do now.
Yes McCartney can retire now....
The brothers' rendition of "If I Fell" never fails to give me the chills no matter how many times I listen to it. Love all their covers but there are quite a few that are very special and magical, IIF is one of them.
feel the same way too...
Close your eyes
Then you got the BEATLES
filipbong goosebumps.. i heard Lennon...oh my....

Holy crap! That bass player has Paul's "sawr" down pat..😍

They play the Beatles just like the

AMAZING !!!
Exactly.
OMG he is so so casually killing that base. awesome
sounded really good. especially the lead guitar fills. Love old time harmony.

You picked the best love ballads by the Fab Four! They changed the world forever with their music! Superb job!
Every one of the brothers are world class talents.
God almighty. The more I surf the net the more I get amused. The flow of talent is just endless.
Probably the best rendition of If I Fell I've ever heard!!!
me too buddy !!!
Miltefar Easily one of the most difficult harmonies to duplicate, and handled easily by these gentlemen!!
Almost - The Fabs still The One & superb live before screaming hoardes!
Exactly! These gents nailed all 3 beatles songs. Love it!

You are better off as a group, the blending of your voices is perfect. Be humble, as you are. Congrats, keep it up.
The best band to cover The Beatles songs...die hard fan od the Beatles since I was 8...ang lupit nyong mag kakapatid...napaka husay
i believe Reo Bros are heaven sent. God created them for us to simply love music and entertain people all over the world like me amidst the on going covid pandemic or without, their music is truly impossible to resists, my heart is overwhelming with joy every time i watch them singing because their music is absolutely mind blowing or psychedelic...much love, God bless!!!
After I listened to this earlier, I looked for the original Till There Was You (Beatles) ...goodness me! It is a C-L-O-N-E!
Fully agree
That version was the one performed by The Beatles at Ed Sullivan Show.
One of my favorites as well Hazel!
Sound is so like paul mcartney and lennon Wow 😍❤ the original beatles Well done guys your so insperational
Golden buzzer is not enough for these talented brothers..
Your vocals on "If I Fell" are amazing.
The voice quality is comparable to the original, as well as the instrument playing. More power and keep on playing beautiful music.
👍 Agree
They really sound so good together. And they were also playing exemplary guitar, drums and keyboards.
The original was a musical.
I admit they are good but they would even say they aren’t comparable to the Beatles vocally or instrumentality.
The Fab Four come the closest but the originals there is and never will be any one ever to touch them and the talent they possessed.
Best of the Best in the World! Your Harmony gives me the chills!!!
Thank You!!!
Each one of You Have a Very Special part In This Group! It's So Beautiful!!! Love You Guys! Loves from Honolulu!!!
God Bless you 10 fold!!!
This guyz truly are Millennial Beatles legend of the time!
There are many musicians who cover The Beatles, but they are great musicians who have a good impression of their singing and playing without any quirks!! And above all, their performance feels respect for The Beatles
I thanked RUclips for letting me know this band REO Brothers. They kept me sane during the hard lockdown in pandemic. Keep singing brothers. May God continue to guide and bless you more.
To be able to come out of one arrangement into another quickly is not as easy as they make it look. Great musicians.
These guys are keeping our good music alive.
I have known some of the Philipines musicians, came to Thailand in the mid 60, someone like Tony Aquira, and they played so good the oldies stuff and including The Beatles...and now comes to the new generations and all of you happened to the world again, Gosh remind me of the happiness and joy of life 50 years ago...keep playing Great stuff..Brothers..Richard

I was born in CA US after WWII my Mom was born in Cebu. She would have been proud of you boys. I am so happy when I hear you sing. My Mom wouldn't let me go to the Hollywood Bowl to see The Beatles. I cried for days so she gave up and let me go to a "Doors" concert instead. Haha. She didn't know who they were. I saw them when I was 14 yrs. old at the "Anaheim Convention Center" across the street from Disneyland. Love your music.so talented!! MATAHUM!!
Very well said...from humble beginnings, look where they are now...very talented brothers indeed... May God bless you more, REO Brothers... You are an inspiration, proud to be a Filipino... I can watch & listen to your music all day long...❤️
They should have sent a video of themselves playing prior to their interview at the US Embassy, along with a link to their RUclips channel, or at the very least dressed up nicely. An interview in any situation, be it for a job, or an entry visa, necessitates preparation and looking your best. That’s just common sense.
Yes, they were initially denied a visa to enter the US. With the help of an immigration lawyer, they eventually got their US visa and were able to make it to New York and perform at the Madison Square Garden in the Yolanda fundraiser Concert "Pinoy Relief". Attorney Michael Gurfinkel said, “One of the issues is the boys have never been outside the Philippines before, which made getting the visa that much more difficult".
Well said!!
Bloody hell, this is brilliant! Guys, is there even ONE Beatles song that you can't do spot on???
Greetings from Slovakia .
I'm a musician and Beatles fan from Brazil. Guys...you are AWESOME!
The best Beatles cover band on youtube
Well, there's more : like
"Mona Lisa Twins" and "Blac Rabbit" f.e.
But these are closest to the original - without cheap copying
Truly the best.
Whoa whoa 😳 MIND BLOWING PERFORMANCE 🎭
The harmonies so good.. “If I Fell”. My fave. @3:58
I can’t move on from my addiction to these lovely siblings. Since the end of their US TOUR, everyday i tune in to their video playlist, here at home, there in my workplace and everywhere.
Im so amazed to see that foreign people give positive comments on this band while some of dislikes here came from jelous fellow countrymen so sad.
Bro, it is normal. We patronize foreign singers but despise the locals.
Ignore mo nalang masaklap nito ang mga kababayan naten yung iba hindi lahat imbes na itaas ka HIHILAHIN KANG PABABA sad to say maraming ganyan sa politics nalang look mo mahirap yung nagawamong kabutihan hindi nakikita pero yung 1pag kakamali mo lang wasak lahat but pilipino are mabait mabibilang mo lang yung buzzer pero maganda rin ang BUZZER kase inaangat ka nyan
Marami pa rin talaga ang mga utak talangka sa mga kababayan natin.
Well dont get me wrong. Its hard to tell those dislike 👎 are came from our own people. 🤔 just my own opinion
Years back halos banyaga ang nagcocoment dto at konti lng ang pinoy. Nagsimula dumami nung nag live cla nung april quarantine.. marahil ang target tlga nila is more on sa labas ng bansa n audience kaysa s pinoy.. kasi nga tayong pinoy mala talangka.. panisinin nio hashtag nila, walang anything about phil marahil gusto nila mangyari s alhorithm ay ma attract ang labas ng bansa lang.. just my opinion..
As the beatles' die hard fan, i'm so glad to finally found this youtube channel.
😘
Strait Funk Pretty Girl....

Thank You!!! You Guys blow my mind!!! You Sound So much like Beatles, Bee Gees, all!!!
Amazing...you Never Seize to Amazing...You are All the Best of the Best!!!!
I Love You guys...Love Your Sound...Loves from Honolulu!!!
Best beatles cover....You're the best bro's....
I've always liked If I Fell. Just goosebumps... It's 1:30AM here. RUclips finally put you guys in my "recommended" maybe an hour ago. Eagles, Simon & Garfunkel, Beatles, Beach Boys... You guys are good. It's nice to hear the old songs done by young groups.
I love If I Fell, too. ❤️
Check out their BeeGees you'll die😂 just kidding. me too.
Great talent's ❤️
Me too
If I Fell has the most mesmerizing and beautiful harmony ever written. Hands down.
I didn't really "grow up" with the Beatles, but being 50 puts me way ahead (in years) of these boys. There have been hundreds of bands I know who copied the Fav 4, and the closest was the Beatlemania, until the REO brothers came... Musically, these boys right here are the closest you'll ever get to the real thing.
You all sing superbly on these Beatle songs..but anyone who’s played any music by The Beatles knows very well they can be quite quirky to perform..so I’d like to pay a compliment on your musicianship!
Outstanding!!
I spend hours listening to REO Brothers and it's hard to stop, a show to hear who knows what it's like to make music and be humble. May GOD help us to promote these fabulous Filipino brothers. Hugs from Brasil.
I never get tired of watching this boys everyday...they are my stress reliever...
I can die anytime with peaceful mind after i heard this.
You can't beat the real thing but wow!!! Seriously guys nice job
Till there was this Reo bros...great music, great musicians, i love you all!
I am so glad I found these guys singing my childhood favorite songs, which i used to listened only on the radio. Then, became our favorite past time when my younger brother learned to play a guitar. But with these talented guys, their songs now are in my favorite playlists which I used to listen everyday! Thanks to Reo Brothers! Hope I could be able to watch you performing live. After this Pandemic. God bless us all!
Vocal Harmony and Musicianship.. absolutely the best beatles band
Enjoying your songs..you're so gifted! Keep it up. God bless. More power
Salam untuk musik yang indah tak lekang oleh waktu...from indonesia
Great, my First you tube Beatles Cover Band. THANK YOU for this Video, from Germany Ellen ✌❤🌹🕊
If you look up the word perfection you just may find it under REO Brothers! Just Beautiful guys! Don't know how the hell people gave you a thumbs down on this or any of your performances...
Just found you guys today 20th December 2020 Sunday fabulous been listening for 3 hours now its 18.45 evening from David England love this music guys don't stop
Found them too 3 months ago and from then on, ‘haven’t stopped watching them.
Lead guitar is so clean and crisp.. Great harmonies
Their music of course is beautiful; but it strikes that their PERFECTION is as a group, always exquisite.
Dixie not nearly perfect but enjoyable.
Dixie I can say almost close to perfection.The vocal harmonies,the blending, the instruments note for note deliberation.They’ve done it almost 95% ...that’s my grading system....what can I do....that’s it..
🎸🙌✨SUPER DUPER AWESOME 👏👏👏🙌🙌🙌
I've pointed out just how profoundly great you guys are to me, more times than I can remember...it's still true! Just phenomenal....I could listen to you play every Beatle song ever recorded...and when you got to the "last one" I'd want you to start over. You have also done so many other groups now, I've lost track, and each one is spot on as far as faithful recreation of the original. Can't sing your praises loud enough or long enough. Would love the opportunity to jam with you, but not gonna hold my breath on that one!LOL Am commenting here just so I can suggest that you maybe turn up the volume on the drums a notch...at least a half a notch.....the drums were an integral part of the original Beatles sound, and so important to making their "sound"...you have everything else 110% percent perfect...just need to hear the drums a tiny bit more. Love the rendition of "If I Fell" and all the others as well....can't praise you enough.
