Josephine & The Artizans

Josephine & The Artizans are a London based Hip-Hopera band that consist of classical strings, operatic vocals, heavy beats and energetic rap. Classically trained Josephine was growing increasingly tired of the cultural gap between the pop-scene and classical world so she decided to create something which is neither classical or commercial, but a blend of both.
