Well-Strung have been featured on The TODAY Show with Kathie Lee & Hoda, Andy Cohen's Watch What Happens Live, the CBS News and ABC Television as well as The Huffington Post among other national media outlets. The group recently sold out Feinstein's in San Francisco and 54 Below in New York City. Last August, they were invited to perform with Tony and Emmy Award Winner Kristin Chenoweth in her two sold-out concerts at Town Hall in Provincetown, MA. Well-Strung also performed in May 2014 at LifeBall in Vienna on the same bill as Ke$ha, participating in the largest AIDS research fundraiser in the world. Most recently, this past October they were featured in Tony Award Winner Joanna Gleason's critically acclaimed new show in New York and New Orleans; on November 15th they performed with opera star Deborah Voigt, Norm Lewis and Sierra Boggess to open the new Walt Disney Theater at the Dr. Phillips Center in Orlando directed by Richard Jay-Alexander; and this past December performed for three sold-out holiday shows with the San Francisco Gay Men's Chorus in San Francisco for over 4,000 people. They are currently in the midst of their second national tour and working on their new CD entitled POPssical scheduled for release this fall. Next, the group will return to the Provincetown's Art House for a fourth consecutive summer to debut their all new show "Summer Lovin'" directed by Richard Jay-Alexander, running from June 30 through September 12.

Their first music video entitled Mozart Meets Kelly Clarkson caught the eye of the international press. While making their London debut in the West End at the Leicester Square Theatre, BBC Radio host Jo Good called Well-Strung "absolutely amazing" after their on-air performance and interview for her show. In the States, they've been called "the hottest thing with a bow since Jennifer Lawrence in The Hunger Games" by the New York Daily News, and were featured in their first magazine cover spread for Metrosource. The New York Times called them "a talented quartet of men that brilliantly fuses pop and classical music from Madonna to Beethoven."

Well-Strung is made up of Edmund Bagnell (first violin), Christopher Marchant (second violin), Daniel Shevlin (cello) and Trevor Wadleigh (viola). The foursome features classical musicians who sing, putting their own spin on the music of Mozart, Ravel, Beethoven, Vivaldi, Pink, Madonna, Kelly Clarkson and more. They have quickly gained national and international attention for their unique mash-up of string quartet and boy band. The group was conceived by Mark Cortale & Christopher Marchant.
