Excellent "Pop Classical" Band
Leave it to a friend half way around the world in Japan to introduce me to yet more new music. I just picked up the Born album by Bond this afternoon. The band is made up of four very attractive women all playing strings. Two violins, a viola, and a cello. Quite soothing and good music to write by. Since I spend most of my time writing these days, that should be quite helpful. I think I'll send a copy to my niece as well. She plays the cello and would be good exposure to another variety of music rather than straight classical only.
The music could easily be used for a magician's background music. A couple of tracks were also used for skating at the winter olympics. the group has recently toured the Far East, evidently where my friend Jon got word of them. Anyway, check them out if you like ambient/trance type music.
