Femmes Of Rock Put Classical Twist On Classic Rock At Spencer, 7/21

FEMMES OF ROCK, led by rock violinist and arranger, Nina DiGregorio, has rocked audiences worldwide with their blistering solos, unique arrangements-and undeniable beauty and charm.

Known as Bella Electric Strings, the electric ladies, who perform with a full rock band at Spencer Theater at 8 p.m. Saturday, July 21, have collectively performed with such industry headliners as Beyonce, Shakira, Stevie Wonder, Andrea Bocelli and Cheap Trick. Recently, the Bella gals were the featured strings ("20 BELLA GIRLS!") for a DirecTV special starring Richard Marx, Kenny Loggins and Eric Benet.

The FEMMES OF ROCK show takes Bella Electric Strings to a whole new level. All-new arrangements of favorite rock tunes like "Kashmir," Baba O'Riley "Back In The USSR," "Eleanor Rigby," "Bohemian Rhapsody," "Purple Haze," plus new original material, fabulous light designs, video, choreography, comedy, and more can be expected in this high-energy show. The only one of its kind, there are no other similar string acts operating at this level of production. Be prepared for something that you have not yet seen the likes of, a scintillating full-stage concert that underscores why these classical trained ladies are one of the most sought-after "hard rock" violin acts in the world.

Excellent seats ($39-$59) are still available for the July 21 concert at the Spencer. Call 575.336.4800 or go online to www.spencertheater.com for tickets and information. The night's concert is sponsored in-part by Cindy & Gary Lynch. A pre-show green chile chicken lasagna buffet ($20) is also available at 6 p.m.
