Irene Green left to join Tiffany's Dimensions and Sheila McGlory to the Demoiselles.

[4] John Lennon of the Beatles infamously told the group that "girls" were unable to play guitars.

[4] This remark motivated the band, and they proved him wrong as The Liverbirds became one of the top attractions at the Star-Club and released two albums and several singles on the club's own label.

McGlory runs a Hamburg-based company called Ja/Nein Musikverlag ("Yes/No Music Publishing") which she founded with her husband, German songwriter Frank Dostal (died April 2017), who was one of the band's former colleagues from the Star-Club and later vice-chairman of the German performance rights organization GEMA.

The story of the Liverbirds is the subject of the 2019 musical, Girls Don't Play Guitars, written by Ian Salmon and directed by Bob Eaton[14] at the Royal Court Theatre, Liverpool.

[15] Founding members McGlory and Saunders have been involved with the production and join in the cast on stage for the encore.
