List of beat bands

This is a list of beat bands. Beat is a genre of rock music and R'n'B developed around Liverpool in the late 1950s. Freakbeat subsequently grew out of the beat-scene in the 1960s, simultaneously with the Netherlands-specific Nederbeat-scene, the Italian beat-scene and the Yugoslav beat-scene.
