The Bridgerton's Cover Band, Vitamin String Quartet to Perform at NJPAC in May
The performance will take place on May 17.
Pop meets classical in this one-night only concert by the Vitamin String Quartet at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center on Saturday, May 17th at 8:00 p.m. Long before Bridgerton broke the Netflix algorithm, Vitamin String Quartet had helped establish classical crossover as a genuine force in contemporary music. Fresh off high-profile placements in Seasons 1 and 2 of the aforementioned streaming smash, VSQ has "reached a mainstream, global audience" (Variety) and "charmed the world with their classical covers" (Nylon). New York Observer wrote, "VSQ's atmospheric hits have made classical versions of pop music cool." On their latest tour, VSQ have created fresh arrangements of the cultural phenomenon that is Taylor Swift, performing spellbinding and innovative renditions of Swift's music, alongside familiar hits from Billie Eilish, BTS, Bridgerton, The Weeknd to DaftPunk.
VSQ are one of the most popular string ensembles in the world with over 2 billion streams and seven albums charting on both Billboard Classical and Classical Crossover charts. VSQ's music has appeared in high-profile TV shows such as Netflix's Bridgerton, HBO's Westworld, Showtime's Shameless, and ABC's Modern Family.
