Linzi Stoppard Rocks Bonhams.
Tue 5th Jan, 2010
Linzi Stoppard and Ben Lee, aka FUSE, the most innovative electric string act for over a generation star at the Status Quo Prince's Trust auction at Bonhams, London...
To mark the 40th anniversary of Status Quos first hit single, 'Pictures of Matchstick Men', and to raise money for The Prince's Trust, Status Quo hosted a star-studded auction at Bonhams auction house in London. The evening included a one-off performance by special guests Linzi Stoppard & Ben Lee, aka electric string super group FUSE.
FUSE violinists Linzi Stoppard & Ben Lee - rock electric string super group. FUSE are redefining the stereo-type that the violin is just a classical instrument with their eagerly awaited debut album. Months were spent locked away in rehearsal rooms mastering the FUSE sound which is taking the violin further than any string act has dared to venture before - ROCK. Already labeled as "the most innovative string act for over a generation" FUSE are pioneering a new violin dawn.
As Linzi says, "It's completely fresh, no one thought that what we do was even possible. Everything you hear is violins! The style that we use when we play is more akin to that of a guitar player, with more soul and electricity - literally! We chose work from artists that are huge stadium acts, and that's where we want to be. It is that big and that powerful - get some ear plugs! We specialise in blowing away people's preconceptions."
No reality TV, no stories, just talent and music. That is what FUSE is all about.
