this is absolutely one of our favorite
things to attend every holiday the by
electric holiday concert under the stars
in Lake Eola Park those ladies know how
to rock
[Music]
you know it's a big deal of mr. and mrs.
Claus approve right this Friday Central
Florida's top stirrings rock group
returns to downtown Orlando we're
talking about vile ectric can we're
lucky to have Michele Jones by electric
founder and leave vinyl vinyl in is here
with us this morning I tried to get it
out welcome thank you for having a good
morning this is gonna be a big show your
6th annual show out there at Lake Eola
what can we expect from this show
well definitely live music a lot of
special guests we have some local
celebrities who will be in attendance
can't say who just yet and then of
course it's gonna be just a wonderful
concert we we've partnered with Pet
Alliance this year and with Pet Alliance
they are are going to be there
collecting donations and we encourage
people please bring a blanket or a towel
to sit on because the benches they get a
little chilly yes and sometimes
uncomfortable so what we do is we say
bring something it doesn't matter if
it's got rips or tears or something to
sit on and then leave it for the pets
because especially during this this
chilly weather season they definitely
need absolutely I love that you have
this violin so it's an electric violin
right I've never even heard of that oh
well we my husband actually creates this
and what it is is this particular one is
just an electric violin there's no wires
on it or anything and it's being
controlled right now remotely and that's
what is so unique about our instruments
is that they can be controlled as part
of an overall lighting design as part of
the show the state's show so all of our
instruments are part of the show as well
as the music so it's definitely a visual
and an audio that's why it's at night
it'll look great on predicting the
weather will be good for the good job
and you really do what some people might
consider unconventional things with this
this is not your typical know you know
stirrings situation absolutely well
there are some wonderful concerts and we
we've heard about them that are
traditional music for us we like to do
something non-traditional yeah what we
do is we mash up some of your holiday
favorites like carol of the bells with
Fall Out Boy centuries Oh
so they actually it's
sounds like centuries but it's also
Kerala and then we do the same thing
with like nothing else matters by
Metallica get smashed up beautifully
with we three kings Wow I do want to
hear that so there is its unique twist
on things and everything is live we're
definitely the only live rock string
show where there's nothing with a
pre-recorded track everything is live
and is happening live while we're
performing I love this cuz it's free
it's right out there at Lake Eola you
have the beautiful fountain and the tree
out there too and you're benefiting Pet
Alliance I mean it's a no-brainer to be
there this Friday my favorite word's
free and pet friendly they broadcast us
all the way around the lake so if you
have and some people they have pets that
are very what's the word I'm looking for
there they don't like to sit still very
long walk around the lake and still hear
walk around the lake we're still
enjoying the concert and of course don't
forget to come back and take a pet photo
with Santa and mrs. Claus they'll be in
attendance as well and where else can
you have a pet photo with Santa and mrs.
Claus with that beautiful Lake Eola
Christmas tree oh yeah we know about
that Street oh yes the tree last weekend
one of our favorite events of the year
and so what do you hear from people who
maybe experience this for the first time
and just really aren't expecting what
you're bringing to the table wow that's
a good question I think more than
anything they're just surprised going I
wish I'd known about this sooner I wish
we had come sooner and and we'd like we
want we'd like our repeat guests and our
repeat fans but we also love to Brent
branch out and reach new fans and and
new audiences and by partnering with pet
alliance we're able to do that as well
so we were just completely thrilled that
they're our partner this year yeah it
exposes people who may not have been
exposed to violent and classical type
music you know it really reaches new
audiences which is important yes
pulls in the audience's who like rock
music which I love you have some of the
hard rock music mixed in with the
holiday music what about the pets to the
pets like it it's okay if they do we
heard singing along
and especially with the audience there's
opportunities for the audience to sing
along as well as to headbang with us we
know that you've been all over the world
with your music so where can we get more
information about the show and other
things by electric is into V electric
