Leslie Cavendish

Cutting Beatle Hair

Venue: Eureka House - O’Brien’s Super Valu Stage

In late 1966, through Paul McCartney’s then-girlfriend, Jane Asher, hairdresser Leslie Cavendish of the famous Vidal Sassoon salon, met and began cutting McCartney’s hair. Eventually, he styled the other three Beatles as well and became part of their inner circle, attending Beatles Recording Sessions and joining the band on the Magical Mystery Tour. They even tempted him away from Sassoon’s to open his own salon at their Apple Tailoring boutique in London’s King Rd. Leslie was also in the building at 3 Saville Row for that famous Let it Be rooftop concert. It’s all in his romp of a memoir The Cutting Edge. Leslie will be talking about the Fab Four to Gerry Foley.

PLEASE NOTE: In a change to the printed listing this event will now take place in Eureka House - O’Brien’s Super Valu Stage
