Leaving the club in a van driven by Lord Woodbine and Williams for a career-defining first tour of Hamburg in 1961, it was also the venue where the act first announced changing its name to The Beatles. Even after the relationship with Williams ended, The Beatles recruited the drummer of Jacaranda regulars Rory Storm and the Hurricanes' - soon to be known as Ringo Starr - to replace Best and ultimately signed another frequent club visitor Brian Epstein as the manager who would take them on to global fame. Unlike many of the original Merseybeat venues like The Cavern Club, which was demolished and rebuilt as a tourist attraction, The Jacaranda remains an operational record label, music venue, bar and record store to this day, hosting nightly live performances and continuing to evolve after over 60 years. In September 2019, Jacaranda Records announced that the building's top floor had been converted into the UK's first music-specific immersive audio studio.
