Out now on all platforms. Link in bio. We’ve been patiently waiting for Taylor’s version, so we thought we’d make our own! This is NOT your ordinary classical cover. In fact, we struggle with fitting into the classical genre AT ALL. But we are performing on acoustic string instruments, so “classical” it may be for now… Listen to our string quartet cover of Taylor Swift’s ‘…Ready For It?’ complete with octave down cello distortion, chopping and 100% Reputation vibes. And if you’d like to support us in a more meaningful way, please consider purchasing the single from our Bandcamp page. Either way, we’re eternally grateful. AND…this single is the first release from our NEW ALBUM, releasing on 6 June. ‘CSE Performs Taylor Swift’ with one song from every era. A treat for Swifties! . . . #stringquartet #strings #stringcover #classicalmusicians #music #classicalcover #intsrumental #citystringensemble #violin #cello #musicians #taylorswift #taylorsversion #reputation #readyforit
