Their first record, Mathias Duplessy & the Violins of the World, was followed by a successful world tour that opened people’s eyes and ears to the band’s amazing musical abilities. They are back with a new album, Brothers Of Strings (released in January 2020), a road movie of new worlds, from the Gobi, to China and the ancient Far East, including wild covers of Morricone’s “The Good, the Bad and The Ugly” and Dire Straits’ “Brothers In Arms.”
