Album Description:
When people talk about the most important rock albums of the new millennium, Green Day’s American Idiot will be at the top of the list. American Idiot showed that Green Day could rock and still speak their minds. Vitamin String Quartet has reworked this Grammy-winning modern classic, translating the album’s epic sweep into powerful arrangements for violins, viola and cello.

Read a review of the album at this Green Day fan site:

“This is so different from the original that it’s a work of art in its own right, and it’s a real tribute to the beauty and power of American Idiot.”

2 Jesus of Suburbia
3 Holiday
4 Boulevard of Broken Dreams

    Will you ever play closing time by green day or what goes around by Justen timberlake? What about some country like just another day in parricide by Phil Vassar? Then maybe some backstreet boys or some smashmouth?
