Moxie Strings • Feel Good Melodies/Rock Influenced
August 24 @ 7 PM
Joining us from Nashville, Moxie Strings is celebrating their newest album Live & Plugged In debuting at #1 on the Billboard Classical Crossover Charts. Hailed by The Grand Rapids Press as “top-notch, instrumental wizardry,” The Moxie Strings offer listeners the unique opportunity to experience some of the world’s best-known instruments through an electric, innovative lens.
Diana Ladio and Alison Lynn make up Moxie Strings. Alison performs on a newly-invented, electric cello, and Diana on a contemporary 5-string violin. Both use a variety of audio effects pedals. The Moxie Strings compose the majority of their pieces and arrange melodies from many countries, resulting in a genre-blurring blend of ear-catching, mainstream melodies and foot-stomping, rock-influenced rhythms.
The band’s polished, high-energy show continues to redefine strings’ role in contemporary music, and offers audience members a diverse, fun, musical experience. Moxie Strings have released 5 albums. You really don’t want to miss this amazing night of music.
