Classically trained violinists Wilner “Wil B” Baptiste and Kevin “Kev Marcus” Sylvester present a fresh fusion of classical music, rock, R&B, pop and hip-hop with Black Violin. Accompanied by drummer Jermaine “Beatdown” McQueen, turntable DJ Dwayne “DJTK” Dalal and cellist Joseph “Joe Cello” Valbrun, Baptiste and Sylvester produce a sound that breaks through the barriers of genre. British newspaper The Independent hailed Black Violin as one of the top five bands at the 2013 SXSW Music Festival, and the group performed for President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama at the 2013 Presidential Inauguration.
