“The hottest thing with a bow since Jennifer Lawrence in The Hunger Games” – Gina Salamone, NY Daily News

One Direction step aside – there’s a new kind of boy band on the circuit. The all-male string quartet Well-Strung features classical musicians who sing, putting their own spin on the music of Mozart, Vivaldi, Rihanna, Adele, Lady Gaga, and more! Their debut show sold-out Joe’s Pub in May 2012.  Since then, they have played venues across the world such as The Art House in Provincetown, the Leicester Square Theatre in London, 54 Below in New York, House of Blues in New Orleans and Feinstein’s in San Francisco.

The group has been on a hot streak: in addition to their recent London debut, they sold out Feinstein’s in San Francisco and their new show is playing 54 Below in New York this February and March. Their new show, directed by Donna Drake (A Chorus Line) features new arrangements of songs by Pink, Kelly Clarkson, Taylor Swift and Third Eye Blind among others as well as new material written by Jeffery Roberson (aka Varla Jean Merman).

Well-Strung stars first violinist Edmund Bagnell, second violinist Christopher Marchant, cellist Daniel Shevlin and violist Trevor Wadleigh. Well-Strung’s show is directed and co-written by Donna Drake with arrangements by David Levinson. The quartet was formed by producer/co-writer/manager Mark Cortale and Christopher Marchant. Additional arrangements are by Daniel Shevlin, Yair Evnine and Christopher Marchant.
