In Front Of The World Famous Ritz Hotel Linzi Stoppard's Rocking Performance Kicks Off The New Year

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) March 18, 2010 -- Their performance was covered by 24 US TV stations including national networks CBS and NBC, Sky, Reuters broadcast to more than 300 million viewers on 750 international TV stations around the world.

The Parade began at 12 Noon on Piccadilly at the junction with Berkeley Street outside the Ritz Hotel where FUSE kicked off the parade with a rendition of their upcoming debut single 'Glorious' and ended the set with Michael Jackson's 'Beat It'

The Parade then started through the streets of Piccadilly, Piccadilly Circus, Lower Regent Street, Waterloo Place, Pall Mall, Cockspur Street, Trafalgar Square, Whitehall and Parliament Street.

More than 10,000 performers representing 20 countries world-wide assembled for the Parade.

Crowds of more than half a million attended and lined up London's most famous streets to see the fantastic spectacular as it wove its way along the 2 mile route.

3 hours of Live Satellite Coverage was beamed around the world. Major broadcasters such as the BBC, CNN, Fox news, SKY and CBS covered the event.

FUSE is electric violinists Linzi Stoppard & Ben Lee, the Prince and Princess of the rock violin world. When Ben and Linzi set out to break the mould and push the boundaries they realised they had two choices: to be followers or to show the way with initiative. The latter was the only real option.

While following their instincts the band recognised their competition had all failed to conquer the same conundrum - how does a new violin act avoid sounding exactly the same as the one before? Other string acts call themselves electric but often record using acoustic instrument or with no effects which limits them sonically.

This narrow path leads to most violin / cross-over string acts covering the same music again and again and in the same style. Not so with FUSE - the answer to the conundrum was a fresh progressive approach using the most up to date techniques, original guitar valve amps, sonic processors and of course their bespoke gold Bridge electric violins - the FUSE sound was born.

Never before has an electric string group dared ventured into the world of electric guitars like FUSE in 2010 - it's a first. Don't be fooled by the incredible guitar-like sounds, arrangements, techniques and solos - these are not guitars you are listening to but electric violins FUSE-STYLE.
