Two Cellos play rock

[misterNNL]

I don't know how you like your rock music(if at all) but I ran across a two man group names two cellos that are simply amazing. Search for 2 cellos play highway to hell and be prepared to be amazed. They do a number of rock songs with their considerable talent that are available on-line. Enjoy!

My dad turned me on to Apocalyptica after a business trip to Germany, they started out playing Metallica songs on cello.

That is very well done. There are a few similar acts, and quite often they music is very enjoyable.

I remember seeing, I think a different group, that opened for an Elton John. They have several You-Tube video's in different settings. In one they're in a music store trying out some instruments.   The are both trained in Classical Music from one of Europe's universities.

The "2Cellos" are a Croatian classically trained duo of cellists named Stjepan Hauser and Luka Šulić.

They started doing these covers just for fun and made a name for themselves a few years back with cello performances of famous rock/pop songs, having toured for a time with Elton John as his opening act (as previously mentioned).

Here are a few vids... The aforementioned Highway to Hell music store video featuring Steve Vai on guitar, and a few others... Among my favorite covers of theirs are Michael Jackson's Smooth Criminal, AC/DC's Thunderstruck and Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit but there are many others you can search for yourselves! Enjoy:

These are the artist I was thinking of. So hard to describe just how good they are. They look like they're having the time of their lives when they preform and this really shows the range of their talent.
