At the edge of musical exploration, rap and classical collide with Black Violin. Taking their name from a swing era album by violinist Stuff Smith, classically trained musicians Kevin Sylvester (“Kev Marcus”) and Wilner Baptiste (“Wil B”) transformed themselves into this hip hop/R&B/bluegrass duo. Black Violin rock, swing, set down dope beats and use every part of their instruments – bowing, plucking and strumming their violins and violas.
