Emo Orchestra is a revelation. A project brought to life by Ben Mench-Thurlow, it is unlike anything you have heard. Bringing the nostalgia and emotion of the best of emo music and presenting it in a contemporary and adult manner, it is classical music as you have never heard it before. And they are going on tour!
Ben had this to say about the orchestra and what it represents for him:
“Our goal with Emo Orchestra was to create an inclusive experience that appeals to a wide audience of music fans. It’s an opportunity for early fans of the emo genre to share the music that we all loved with the next generation, and it was curated to be family-friendly. The addition of the orchestra adds a cool texture and depth to these nostalgic hits and may also expose fans to instrumentation they’re less familiar with in a new setting. And orchestra lovers will experience what they enjoy with an exciting twist!”
The tour will be the first time that the orchestra has hit the road. Their set will feature all of your favorite songs from your youth, so just try and imagine what bangers are going to show. And if that wasn’t enough, Hawthorne Heights will be joining them for the ride as well. So it doesn’t get much better than that.
