StringFever
is certainly a family affair, as British brothers Giles, Ralph and Neal,
and cousin Graham Broadbent dazzle their audiences with their amazing
musical talents. These talented musicians have put together a wonderful
original show with their electric instruments and unique sound featuring
five and six stringed electric violins (called violectras), a viola, and
a cello. Charisma, humor, energy, and a distinctive use of their
custom-made violectra instruments create an experience that can only be
described as
StringFever. Seeing is believing and these Brits will
have you believing. Experience a night you'll never forget! www.stringfeverusa.com |
