Biography

Edit

Bond are a quartet of neo-classical musicians from the UK and Australia who incorporate electro, African and hip-hop into their music. The bands' crossover style has sold over three million albums worldwide. Bond are Haylie Ecker on violin, Eos Chater on second violin, Tania Davis on viola and Gay Yee Westerhoff on cello.

Controversy surrounded the bands' debut album, released in 2001. Born was considered too pop for the classics charts in the UK and it was removed from the No.1 spot. The album was a gold and platinum seller in many countries. Their follow-ups Shine, Remixed and Classified were equally successful. The group supplied the track "Kismet" to the James Bond spoof Johnny English.
