Music that moves me: 2CELLOS

by

We all know that YouTube can make you a star. This is one of those success stories.

Hailing from a small town in Croatia, 24-year-old music students and good friends Luka Sulic and Stjepan Hauser have been playing the cello since childhood. But when they posted a self-made music video earlier this year – of them performing Michael Jackson’s “Smooth Criminal” on their cellos – they received more attention than they ever expected! Discovered via Youtube after their amazing cello cover garnered millions of views in just a few days, their band 2CELLOS is currently touring with Elton John. Classically trained, their debut album was released last month and features Sulic & Hauser’s unique spin on hits by Guns N’ Roses, U2, Coldplay and Kings of Leon, among others.

This is the video that made them famous, their cover of “Smooth Criminal.”

And this is “Welcome To The Jungle.”
