AUSTIN, Texas — A lot of us are likely getting through this uncertain time with a little help from our friends, and maybe some good music, as well.

For decades, Beatles music has been bringing people from all worlds together. And now more than ever, we can turn to the many messages delivered in their songs to help us get by.

Brandon Rummel and Rush Evans are the perfect example.

The two come from different worlds — in fact, their paths likely would never have crossed without The Beatles.

But now, every week, the two of them gather in a little radio studio in Austin, Texas, to share their love for the music with their listeners.

Their show, Off the Beatle Path airs Mondays at 12 p.m. on KOOP 91.7, and takes listeners down the musical roads less-traveled, playing solos by former Beatles and songs by Beatles-inspired artists.

This is a story about music, but more than that, it’s a story about friendship and love.
