Led by the first single, a cover of Bon Jovi’s anthem “Livin’ On a Prayer” (which itself marks a momentous anniversary this year, its thirty-fifth), DEDICATED showcases 2CELLOS’ unique playing style on ten new arrangements that reinvent the music of multiple genres including recent pop/rock hits by One Republic(“Wherever I Go”), Ed Sheeran/Justin Bieber (“I Don’t Care”), Billie Eilish (“bad guy”) and Imagine Dragons(“Demons”), stirring ballads originally performed by Lady Gaga (“Shallow”), Beyoncé (“Halo”) and Simon and Garfunkel (“The Sound of Silence”), and iconic tracks by rock royalty Guns N’ Roses’ (“Sweet Child O’ Mine”) and Aerosmith (“Cryin’”).
"When you listen to us, we hope you realize the cello is a versatile and diverse instrument capable of playing the hardest rock, the softest ballad, and the most contemporary of music,” HAUSER adds. “It moves you in a way that’s equally powerful. It has a whole palette of emotions, ups, and downs. We’re trying to give you an experience you can’t get anywhere else."
