PORT ANGELES –– The British are coming! The British are coming!

Well, at least a facsimile.

Beatles tribute band Creme Tangerine invades the North Olympic Peninsula with a bombardment of the Fab Four’s greatest hits for a show at Olympic Cellars Winery, 255410 U.S. Highway 101, where the band will play as part of the winery’s Saturday Summer Concert Series at 7 p.m. Saturday.

Based in Kirkland, the quintet of Byron Prather on lead vocals and guitar; Chuck Dorsett on keyboards and vocals; Tim Mushen on guitar and vocals; Jeff Lockhart on drums; and Warren Kinser on bass has been a popular draw on the Peninsula, selling out concerts here over the past four years.

Creme Tangerine snags its moniker from a line in “Savoy Truffle,” a song on the Beatles’ White Album.

The band’s Peninsula performance comes on the heels of a re-creation Thursday of the Beatles’ 1964 invasion of Seattle at Seattle Center’s Mural Amphitheater.

Tickets are $13 in advance at www.BrownPaperTickets.com or $15 at the door.

Proceeds will benefit Clallam County Habitat for Humanity.
