When the Grammy-nominated classical-meets-hip-hop duo Black Violin set out to record their sixth album Full Circle, they were searching for a new direction, a fresh approach. They found that the answer was right in front of them. The group enlisted longtime collaborator and LA-based producer Phil Beaudreau (Dr. Dre, Justin Bieber, The Game, Lalah Hathaway), who worked with the group on their 2019 Grammy nominated album, Take the Stairs.

For the latest album, Beaudreau brought his full array of skills as producer, programmer, multi-instrumentalist and mixer, allowing Kev and Wil the freedom for exploration and experimentation in the music without losing its shape. The result is Full Circle, Black Violin’s most rich and varied collection to date. With indelible melodies, boom-bap rhythms, and rich orchestration, and lyrics full of hope and persistence, the songs reveal the range and depth of a project that the members call “more a movement than a brand.”

Black Violin has always been about taking things further, exceeding expectations, challenging conventions. The duo has steadily built a devoted following and a diverse touring base— culminating in such triumphs as two sold-out shows at the Kennedy Center with the National Symphony Orchestra.
