The next Community Concerts of Rancho Santa Fe concert is on Friday, March 25, at Fellowship Hall on the Village Church campus in RSF. The concert will feature Branden & James who are “reinventing the rules when it comes to classical crossover music. They have become a brand name in the crossover classical music world alongside the likes Josh Groban, the Piano Guys and Jackie Evancho” — The Bay Area Reporter, San Francisco.

The duo brings the soulful timbre of James on his cello combined with Branden’s emotional and powerful vocals, creating a sound that leaves audiences feeling moved and inspired. “The always supportive, sometimes haunting power of the cello accompanying Branden’s voice solidifies the classical sound, adds new depth to the popular, and allows the audience to just sit back and take it in...so movingly, that you may forget to breathe!” — Paul Lisnek, host of Broadway in Chicago Backstage. Branden’s accolades include finishing as a finalist on America’s Got Talent, appearances at The Metropolitan Opera, Lyric Opera of Chicago and Los Angeles Opera, two world tours with the Twelve Tenors and two solo releases worldwide. James brings to the mix his own share of musical accomplishments as guest cellist for Olivia Newton John, Idina Menzel and Bernadette Peters in multiple concerts.
