An interview with the artists
The high energy entertainment group B2Wins, perform at the Dogwood Center on Saturday, April 13 at 7:30 p.m.! The duo captivate audiences worldwide with its unique renditions of crowd favorites and engaging, uplifting live show that targets the masses. Led by charismatic Twin brothers from Brazil, they combine a plethora of genres into a feel good performance that is equal parts rock concert, dance party, jam session and vacation for the soul. Growing up in the violent, impoverished slums of Rio De Janeiro, the Twins began playing classical music on violins their father handmade. They used music as an escape from their reality and began teaching others in their neighborhood to do the same. After being featured on National Public Radio, the Twins were invited to the US on full ride music scholarships in 2008. N3 caught up with the 2 talented performers to pose a few questions. Music has been a large part of your lives including as an escape from what was going on around you in younger years. Has the relationship with music changed or evolved since those days? Music has been at the center of our lives since we were kids. It always served as an escape but that doesn't mean what we were escaping was always bad. Music has the power to take you places, a power that nothing on earth has the ability to do. Our relationship with music has absolutely changed, because now we have that power and we want to use it to make people happy. To help audiences unplug from the day to day, and enjoy the simple things in life. To be happy Describe what it feels like to perform? Performing is MAGICAL! We still to this day get such a charge out of performing. The responsibility to have an audience in front of us and deliver is one we never get tired of. We rely on the energy of the crowd so the more they are into the show, the more we give. It's an exchange that is just so organic and beautiful because WE feel and YOU feel it. We love it and are so blessed to call this our "jobs" How would you describe your show to a novice? Our show is nothing but an excuse to have fun. We use a wide range of music and our interpretation of it to take you on a ride of emotions. It's a blend of the songs, genres and styles we enjoy so we don't stay in one lane. But the songs are just the tools, the feeling during and after the show we want you to go away with is pure joy, regardless of what style of music, your age, gender, ethnicity. We all are one with music You played the Dogwood last year and wowed an appreciative crowd. What can the fans you made during your last appearance expect this time around?
