Get to know the people behind the scenes and one of our recurring guests! Rachel first came onto Beatle Banter as the editor for the Rubber Soul episode and officially became a part of the team for the Paul McCartney episode as the writer and research assistant!

Rachel’s first introduction to The Beatles came when she was quite young as she had a CD called All You Need is Love: Beatles Songs for Kids and had an Alvin and the Chipmunks CD with a couple Beatles songs on them and has been an incredible resource ever since! She has gone to many Beatles themed events in the past year and is always looking for more guests to recruit to be on the show and talk about their Beatles experiences!

Dan Holmes is a friend of Rachel’s and they met during production for The 39 Steps at The Arctic Playhouse in West Warwick, RI where he played the role of Richard Hannay and Rachel played multiple characters ranging from spies and more. He plays the harmonica and first became a fan of The Beatles from the 1 album! His favorite album is the White Album and shares a unique insight and additional facts about The Beatles and we love having him on the show!
