Ryan Leslie is not your typical musician. An artist with a business mind and a deep entrepreneurial drive, his career approach has been anything but traditional. Leslie's newest venture, however, is one of the most rewarding to date: he has teamed up with Live From The Republic, an organization which is launching an annual concert series that donates a portion of the proceeds back to the host nation. In the early stages of their partnership, LFTR offered Ryan the opportunity to travel to West Africa to meet the First Lady of Ivory Coast. Upon his return, he made it his mission to perform for the children that he met through her nonprofit foundation. Now, LFTR and Ryan are organizing his concert in Ivory Coast for the spring of 2014. They have already sold tour merchandise via an Indiegogo campaign and hosted a benefit concert in Washington DC to raise funds. Furthermore, with the help of a charitable donation from Coca Cola in the Ivory Coast, they have managed to raise enough money to be able to deliver one million dollars worth of medical supplies to Ivorian hospitals when Ryan performs there this spring.

When they made their anticipated London debut this fall, 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 also recently been called the 'hottest thing with a bow since Jennifer Lawrence in The Hunger Games' by the New York Daily News. Well-Strung: the Singing String Quartet will make their West Coast debut with a series of concerts in four cities over the holiday season. The quartet will appear at Feinstein's in San Francisco on December 27 at 8pm and December 28 at 7pm; at Rockwell Table & Stage in Los Angeles on December 30 at 8pm; at Martini's Above Fourth in San Diego on New Year's Eve, December 31 at 7pm; and at The Copa in Palm Springs on January 3 and 4 at 8pm. The group has been on a hot streak: in addition to their recent London debut, they've just wrapped a three-month run at the prestigious Art House in Provincetown, two recent hit New York productions Off-Broadway in the past year, their first album just released in spring, and a new music video that has caught the eye of the national press. The new show will feature new arrangements of songs by Pink, Kelly Clarkson, Taylor Swift and Third Eye Blind among others as well as new material written by Jeffery Roberson (aka Varla Jean Merman).
