Verne Byers
Verne Byers, aka Vern Byers, (' Vincent LeRoy Beyer, March 14, 1918, Denver, Colorado – December 19, 2008, Las Cruces, New Mexico) was an American bandleader of a territory band, a bassist, a concert promoter, and an owner-operator of several live music clubs and restaurants in Denver. Byers is most widely known and remembered as the man who, as executive producer and promoter, brought The Beatles to Denver — their only Denver appearance. The Beatles performed at the Red Rocks Amphitheatre on August 26, 1964.〔Bill Husted, ''Meet the Beatles'', The Denver Post, Dec. 28, 2008〕

Verne Byers & His Orchestra — ''The Band That Sings and Swings'' — played compositions of the World War II dance bands, including those of Glenn Miller, Artie Shaw, and Tommy Dorsey. The orchestra toured the Midwest and Rocky Mountain area in the 40's and 50's as one of many territory bands, playing in venues such as dance halls, ballrooms, and hotels — mostly in Colorado, New Mexico, Iowa, and Minnesota. The band often played at Elitch Gardens; and once opened for Benny Goodman there. The band had twelve players. During the 1950s, bookings for the orchestra were handled by the Omaha office of National Orchestra Service.
