String Fever is a fiery guitar duo founded by Marc Novoselec and Dan Allen. Since 2008, they have been bringing their exciting brand of World Fusion music to stages, festivals, coffee houses and lounges to great reviews. Their music often defies a single simple genre location; "...effortlessly bridges the gaps between traditional North American folk, European Gypsy music, flamenco, rock and Middle Eastern music..." A night with String Fever has something for every musical taste.
Internet Radio stations such as CBC Radio 3, Sirius and AirPlay Direct have seen hits on String Fever's music steadily climbing, with great reviews and listener support:
" Wow you guys are FANTASTIC!!!!!" - Tracey M., Vancouver B.C.
"You guys did such a bang up job on it! I have a stiff neck every time it comes on lol."- Bertinelli, N.Y.
Typically String Fever is a duo, but has brought together some amazingly talented players to form various incarnations of the group from trio to quartet, with additions of Latin percussion and bass guitar. This combo takes the audience on a musical journey around the world with a virtuosity and intensity that is hard to match:
" I had visions of camels dancing the tarantella in my head! Listened to your CD all the way home, and then again on my computer tonight, great job guys!" - Brad G. Barrie, ON
String Fever has also developed a presence on You Tube, with their songs, Czardas and Stairway to the Watchtower. Still with much more to come, String Fever has earned fans with viewers from Bulgaria, Croatia, Israel, Brazil and across North America:
