Vitamin String Quartet: Per_Versions
Vitamin Records was formed in 1999 in Los Angeles “to offer fans exciting versions of their favorite songs performed in new musical contexts.” One of the biggest hits has been their String Quartet. I’ve been listening to their CD “Vitamin String Quartet Tribute to Moby” for over a year now and just recently learned of their other tributes(over 100 full-length CDs).
So far the only other CD I have bought is their record labeled “Per_Versions“. Released in June 2009 This CD compiles some of the biggest indie bands instead of tributing a whole CD to one Artist.
The artists featured in this album are some of my all time favorites and a few of Austin’s best.
