Groundbreaking and category-shattering, this string trio transcends traditional classification, mixing elements of pop, rock, and classical forms. With an infectious energy, virtuosity, and showmanship, Time for Three performs everything from Bach and Brahms to ingenious mash-up arrangements of indie hits, along with the group's own original songs. Their debut album, Time for Three, spent seven consecutive weeks on the Top 10 of Billboard's Classical Crossover Chart.
"Time for Three is the future of music." — Sir Simon Rattle
About Time for Three
Musicians Nick Kendall and Charles Yang, who both double on violin and vocals, alongside Ranaan Meyer, who accompanies on voice and double bass, are better known as Time for Three, an Emmy and Grammy-Award winning chamber pop trio with a foot in the classical world and the other squarely in the field of contemporary folk. Renowned for bravura concerts at spaces including Carnegie Hall, The Kennedy Center and The Royal Albert Hall, the ensemble have worked closely with a diverse and famous roster of artists and composers, including Ben Folds, Branford Marsalis, Joshua Bell, Chris Brubeck, and Pulitzer Prize-winners Jennifer Higdon and William Bolcom.
This Americana-friendly combo are equally at home performing movie soundtracks, playing new classics by composer Kevin Puts for the acclaimed Deutsche Grammophon label, or releasing catchy indie rock cuts like their breakout radio hit Vertigo.
"...this remarkable group is not to be missed... truly, no one else is like Time for Three." – The Strad
