FUSE Stuns VIPs at Silverstone Grand Prix
Linzi Stoppard and Ben Lee are the new violin rock stars of the future. Not satisfied with being just
another classical crossover string cliché FUSE wanted to shake up the classical world and leave a
mark.
FUSE headlined at the British Racing Drivers Club Ball at the Silverstone Grand Prix....
They performed two sets, the first set more mellow to kick off the evening with a bang, Linzi was
elegantly dressed in s show stopping number.
The second set was more rock ending on a fantastic version of Fleetwood Mac's The Chain which is
used as the F1 soundtrack worldwide. This time Linzi mixed it up with the 'rock chick' look and had
the audience applauding on their feet.
The stunning Clubhouse of the British Racing Drivers' Club (BRDC) at Silverstone racing circuit was
brought to life with a temporary installation of cutting-edge Chroma-Q™ LED products for their
annual British Grand Prix Ball.
The BRDC Ball is a legendary event. Held in a luxury marquee erected adjacent to the Members'
Clubhouse on the Friday evening of Formula 1 Santander British Grand Prix weekend, it has always
attracted the crème of the membership, including leading GP drivers and motorsport stars past and
present. The event was hosted by Martin Brundle and included interviews by some of the world's top
drivers including Jenson Button, as well as a speech by BRDC President Damon Hill OBE.
FUSE's debut album...Linzi and Ben decided to use their classical training and roots to reinvent what is
largely regarded as a traditionally classical instrument. They are in the studio recording their debut
album using the most up to date technique usually associated with rock guitar - sound processing,
multiple effects and amps. FUSE album will be the benchmark for a new breed of electric violinists.
