The Freewheelers Cello Blues is a unique duo, trio, or quartet, that features a cello playing blues, rock, funk, jazz and more styles. With the mix of the cello, (electric and acoustic), and Ilene's warm vocals, the Freewheelers come with the most unique cello fronted band in the world. The Freewheelers have been on tour in Europe for the last 7+ years, and now are on the West Coast. The Freewheelers Cello Blues is a perfect group for events of all sizes, and genres. The Freewheelers Cello Blues play a wide variety of music and artists, from Bach to Zeppelin.
My husband and I hired The Freewheelers Cello Blues band to play at our wedding. They did a fantastic job, they kept the crowd entertained; and all through the night people were coming up to us telling us how much they enjoyed the music. The music they played had many people up and out of their chairs dancing. The lead cello player/singer, Ilene, was very personable with everyone and had a wonderful uplifting personality (and what she can do with that cello was amazing). She and her husband, Mr. Bas Vossen, truly love what they do and you can feel it in the music they play. I will definitely hire them again for future events.
Price Range: $300 and up.
Gig Length: 60 - 250 minutes
