Escala performing at Taste of Birmingham
We are proud to announce classical music sensation Escala will be
performing at Taste of Birmingham. Visitors can enjoy the sounds of the
electric string quartet while they tuck into their dishes.
Escala,
a four piece girl band that fuse contemporary sounds with classical
instruments, are performing on the 96.4fm BRMB stage on Saturday 11
July at 3pm. They caused a sensation in the final of ITV’s Britain’s
Got Talent and are hoping to wow visitors to Taste of Birmingham.
Escala
are violinists Victoria Lyon, aged 25, and Izzy Johnston, 25. Chantal
Leverton, a viola player aged 25 and cellist Tasya Hodges, 26 complete
the line up. These talented musicians studied at London’s most
prestigious music colleges, becoming highly trained, professional
classical performers. With their unique formula of fun and integrity,
the girls believe their approach will encourage many (in particular the
young) to overcome prejudices about classical instruments.
The 96.4FM BRMB stage will also be playing host to acts from Tha Jam House and The International Jazz Festival.
