Waterstones in Liverpool’s city centre is hosting an exclusive event for the launch of Paul McCartney’s book The Lyrics: 1956 to the Present.
The Liverpool-born legend shot to fame with The Beatles, making history and leaving a legacy on the music industry that still lasts to this day.

The Lyrics: 1956 to the Present by Paul McCartney is an intimate self-portrait from one of the greatest songwriters of all time, with the musician tracing his life from boyhood to the present day through the lyrics to 154 iconic songs, alongside captivating commentary and never-before-seen photographs, drafts and letters.

On November 1, Waterstones Liverpool will be hosting an evening of celebration for the launch of the book.
Customers are invited to join the bookshop team for an evening of music, visual splendour and Beatles themed fun, leading up to the midnight release of Paul McCartney’s The Lyrics.
The night will also include a performance from the band The Bootleg Beatles, a Beatles themed quiz and much more.
