Carrington-Brown

Carrington-Brown are a British music and comedy duo formed in 2007 by cellist and singer Rebecca Carrington[1] and singer-actor Colin Brown.

As a freelance cellist she has played on film soundtracks, including Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings and recorded with artists such as Aretha Franklin,[4] Paul McCartney, David Byrne and Jill Scott.

Brown has played roles in productions such as La Cage Aux Folles, Smokey Joe’s Café, Driving Miss Daisy and Les Enfants du Paradis with the Royal Shakespeare Company.

In 1996, he became a member of the British a cappella group The Magnets,[5] performing with them for over 10 years during which time they toured supporting Lisa Stanfield, Tom Jones and Michael Ball.

It began as a musical journey around the world with Carrington’s cello, Joe and after Brown joined the show he brought in the bagpipes, which he had learnt in the Boy’s Brigade in London from the age of 11.
