LA Weekly Discovers Vitamin String Quartet

By 23

Thanks to LA Weekly for discussing our newest album, Per_Versions, where we covered numerous indie rock bands such as Cat Power, Animal Collective and No Age.
But the cover that struck us immediately was the Quartet's take on No Age's Eraser...We're actually suckers for string quartet versions of pop music.
They seemed to be a little confused about which bands we have covered. All of our albums are available through the Vitamin Records website. Read the entire LA Weekly article and don't forget to leave comments letting them know what you think.

VSQ News Clips - Radiohead & Per_Versions Tributes

By 23

A couple of album reviews have been popping up online.  Check out what these websites had to say:
Most of the songs on “Per_Versions,” released Tuesday, transfer more effectively than one might think to classical forms. making them ideal for indie rock fans who want to relax rather than rock to their favorite songs or, even better, share with sleepy babies.
Cover artists are often overlooked but when they present a fresh approach such as this, it’s hard not to be intrigued.

Per_Versions also got a quick mention on Stereogum.com.

Read their reviews and let us know your thoughts.   We love to hear feedback from fans!   Feel free to send us any reviews you come across and we'll post the link here.

Vitamin String Quartet Performs Radiohead's In Rainbows

Delivering experimental rock with an emotional punch, In Rainbows is another instantly-classic collection from the worlds’ most adventurous band. Taking inspiration from Radiohead’s vivid compositions, Vitamin String Quartet’s Tribute to In Rainbows explores the line between innovation and tradition. Violins, viola, and cello reinterpret lilting ballads such as “Nude” and “House of Cards,” and reverently transform guitar masterpieces such as “Bodysnatchers” and “Weird Fishes/Arpeggi.” Bodysnatchers- Radiohead House of Cards - Radiohead
