Black Violin at Troy Music Hall

music duo Black Violin

The duo Black Violin is set play a show at Troy Music Hall April 13. Tickets go on sale to the general public this Friday, November 10 -- they're $29.50 and up.

Blurbage:

Black Violin is composed of classically trained violist and violinist Wil B. and Kev Marcus who combine their classical training and and hip-hop influences to create a distinctive multi-genre sound that is often described as "classical boom." The band released their major label debut Stereotypes (featuring Black Thought of The Roots and MC Pharoahe Monch) on Universal Music which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Classical Crossover Chart and #4 on the Billboard R&B Chart. Black Violin has shared stages with top names including Kayne West, Aerosmith and Tom Petty, and has creatively collaborated with the likes of Wu-Tang Clan, Wyclef Jean and Alicia Keys.

The two musicians played the Troy Music Hall last April (here's a review by Joseph Dalton). And they also played a sold-out "SPAC on Stage" show this past August.

Comments

This was the one show I regretted missing last year at the music hall. The videos I saw were amazing and everyone I know that went loved it. I'd recommend getting tickets sooner rather than later.
