2 Be Loved (Am I ready) Lizzo on our NEW ELECTRIC VIOLIN & CELLO!!!!
Here’s one that we hope you guys enjoy, 2 Be Loved (Am I Ready) by the awesome Lizzo. First of all, how on earth have we got this far without covering a Lizzo song?! I mean seriously, when we were trying to decide what song to cover next we were sure that we had already done loads of Lizzo, but no, this is our first one! And what a song to start with, she’s such a powerful singer and this really is a TUNE! So much fun learning this one.
When we realised that it was our first Lizzo song we thought it would be the perfect opportunity to introduce (officially at least) our brand new(ish) electric instruments! Woo! Sarah bought her CR4 NsDesign Electric Cello just before lockdown started and we’ve done a few little gigs on them so far but we haven’t really officially christened them with a proper video. Jaya got his Bridge Aquila Dragon Electric Violin last year. We are both a little bit in love with them but also feel a little bit like we’re cheating on our acoustic instruments (sorry guys)…
For all the gear nerds out there we are putting the instruments through an Electro Harmonix Platform Stereo Compressor pedal straight into a Bose S1 PA (the instruments have their own in-built pre-amps).

A Timeless Classic ❤️ Wonderwall by Oasis
We’ve been talking a lot recently about what makes a song a classic. Some songs seem to manage to be timeless and appeal to all ages. Wonderwall is one of those songs that every aspiring guitarist/singer learns. If you go to an open mic night at pretty much any pub you’re almost guaranteed to hear Wonderwall at least once, we’ve even been to some that have banned it completely 😂 so what makes a classic tune for you? Let us know what your favourite timeless classic is!
Wonderwall by Oasis. Timeless classic. This song is almost as old as we are 🤯 filmed in the Gold Room at Harlaxton Manor.

10:35 Tiësto Tate McRae Violin & Cello Acoustic Cover
Tiësto is one of our favourite EDM DJs, we still can’t get over his version of the amazing Barber Adagio for Strings, look it up if you haven’t heard it. This song seems to have been creeping up the charts for a while and we’re not surprised. Great vocals from Tate McRae and awesome beats from the Godfather of EDM 🥰 so much fun to play!

Thanks Wednesday for the Cello love! Our Wednesday Dance Cello & Violin Cover.
We were a bit late to the Wednesday bandwagon, only getting around to binging it when we got hit by the winter flu over the new year. Being massive Addams Family fans anyway we of course absolutely loved it and were thrilled that the Cello features in it so prominently. We knew that we had to play some of the amazing music from it, so we decided to do a cover of the famous Wednesday Dance music, Goo Goo Muck by the Cramps. We didn’t want to inflict our dancing on everyone so we just went with our best emotionless, dead-eyed stares. Fortunately, the dead-eyed stare is a staple of Classical Music and pretty much how we were trained at Music College (jokes, honest… ish) so we found it pretty easy and only got the giggles a few times while we were filming this.
Kudos to Jenny Ortega for actually learning the Cello and doing some of the best Cello miming we’ve seen in a while! It’s not easy to do! We loved hearing the Apocalyptica version of Nothing Else Matters by Metallica featured at the end of episode 2 and actually did our own version of this a few years ago inspired by the Apocalyptica version. We might have to do Paint it Black at some point as well just because we love the Rolling Stones too. All in all great music throughout, we can’t wait for the next season! Hurry up!

Fall Out Boy – Sugar, We’re Goin Down Violin & Cello Cover Music Version
We were so excited to hear about the new Fall Out Boy album So Much (For) Stardust the other day that we just had to record a cover of our favourite Fall Out Boy song! Sugar, We’re Goin Down is a classic and really popular at Weddings at the moment.
Can’t believe we have to wait until March for the album but at least we can tide ourselves over with the new single Love From The Other Side. We might have to cover it at some point… Maybe… We’ll see 👀. What do you think? Should we do it? 😂 Let us know in the comments if you’d like to hear our version!
We recorded this in the beautiful setting of Harlaxton Manor near Grantham. Thank you guys for letting us play beautiful music in such a beautiful space. The acoustics in the stunning Gold Room are just gorgeous.

Love a bit of Taylor Swift’s new song Anti-Hero!
I know that Taylor Swift’s Anti-Hero is not exactly “new-new” now but it seems to be sticking around in the charts and more importantly has anyone else not been able to get it out of their head? We’ve been humming it for weeks so we thought that we’d better do a cover of it. Thanks for the amazing music as usual Taylor. Enjoy 🙂

Made You Look Meghan Trainor Violin & Cello Cover Music
We’ve been practicing some new music including a cover version of Meghan Trainor’s new song Made You Look. It has been stuck in our heads for DAYS now but we’re not complaining.
It’s really nice to be back playing again after the New Year Flu/Cold thing floored us. It’s taken a little while to get the fingers moving again but we’re learning a whole load of new songs and it’s so much fun. Keep an eye out for more new music from us coming soon. 👀
