Beatles historian Steve Bradley MA has been researching the group for over 40 years.  A second generation fan he grew up in the North West of England spending his pocket money on Beatles books and records.

Steve has contributed to fanzines, magazines, press, websites, blogs, and authors' research. His most treasured possession is a sweaty towel Paul McCartney gave him after a gig.  He lives in 

Cheshire, and has two sons - one named after a Beatle.  Steve's Beatles blog is followed on Facebook by around 1,900 fans.    

Steve has a particular interest in visiting locations with Beatles connections, he says it helps bring their story to life. He has visited over 700 Beatles locations, in Liverpool, Wirral, Wales, all across England, Scotland, London, Hamburg, New York and beyond... 

These include birthplaces, homes, schools, clubs, pubs, hotels, studios, theatres, stadiums, filming locations, graves and statues. 

So far in 2023 Steve has attended an event with original Beatles drummer Pete Best, stayed in George Harrison's childhood home, and attended events in Liverpool to commemorate the 80th anniversary of George's birth.  

Steve has been interviewed about Arrive Without Travelling by media from Germany, the Netherlands, and BBC Radio who described him as "a man who knows all about the Beatles" 

The blog is read on six continents and has even been translated into Norwegian.

Steve recently completed his MA (Master of Arts) in the Beatles; Music Industry and Heritage, at the University of Liverpool. His course of study has been featured in the New York Times and Rolling Stone magazine. He will attend his graduation ceremony later this year.
