Creating a Buzz in the Studio: Group ’The Buzztones’ Sing Live in Radio Lollipop Edinburgh

Posted on by

The Edinburgh Festival and Fringe 2013 is well under way as hundreds of shows take place across the city, in the largest arts festival in the world. Every day, performers which include actors, dancers, singers, artists and comedians are busy with their shows and promoting them. However, one special group took time out of their hectic schedule last night to visit the Radio Lollipop studio at the Sick Children’s Hospital in Edinburgh.

The Buzztones are a vocal harmony group who show that the voice is all you need to produce great music. They perform the best songs without the need for instruments, often called ‘a capella’, producing the unique sounds from their mouths.

The 11 singers come from London and trained in a diverse range of music styles: everything from Pop, through Rock to Classical which means they can cover the most popular songs whilst satisfying wider audiences with their genuine authenticity.

Radio Lollipop listeners were treated to some of their favourite requests, which often includes David Guetta, Chris Brown, Gaga and JLS. The talented group wowed the volunteers with their wonderful live mash ups, and have lots of new fans in Edinburgh, especially those happy listeners tuning into Radio Lollipop last night.
