The Beatles have been making headlines as of late thanks to the reissue of Let It Be and the upcoming Disney+ three-part documentary The Beatles: Get Back. If you're still starved for Beatles content, you can now follow the band on TikTok.

As of publishing, the band's account has shared six clips covering the following:

-The new Let It Be reissue
-A promo clip inviting followers to "Explore The Beatles' '1'" compilation
-A performance video of "Help!"
-A preview clip from The Beatles: Get Back
-A performance video of "Let It Be"
-An animated clip from Yellow Submarine

So, why is this news? Because according to Wallaroo Media, TikTok has about 80 million active monthly users in the United States with 60 percent of those users being between the ages of 16-24. So, if you've been trying to get the teens in your family into the Beatles and they've been resistant, tell them they're on TikTok.

If this is how more young people get introduced to the Beatles, then that's just great! More Beatles fans in the world is always a good thing.
