Just like Laila, Skylar, and Katie, Anna is interested in analyzing the Beatles. However, as a classical musician, Anna approaches the group (and our boy George especially) from a unique point of view. Listen to our interview with Anna and learn about how George can rightfully be compared to some of the great composers of history.
You can follow Anna on Twitter or Instagram @harrisonologist! We will also keep you all updated on when her article is released sometime this year.
And thank you to our great editor, Fizz! Check out her duo Lola's new single, "The Stars Go Home and Cry."
