Californication RHCP cello / acoustic gtr cover Elias Kahila Band

[margaritamaisky]

hey,first of all it's a really amazing cover,I loved it! I go to music school,but I've always loved playing rock music beside classical. I saw you you are offering skype lessons,but I really don't have time or a good webcam. And would love to play this,purely for myself,so if you could please share sheet music of any kind. Please,I would really,appreciate it :)

[eliaskahila]

@margaritamaisky Thanks for the comment. About sheets - If you dont have time to practise, sheet music will do no good in this case...This is difficult music. See the part from 2.18- for example. It requires a new bowing technique that is hard to explain, really hard to practise the technical root only in sheet music... I do make easier/adjustable versions of songs to my students but then i now exactly how to change things. Love from Finland and good luck with the cello....E

[delkhairio]

COOL!!

[eliaskahila]

@delkhairio thanks

[muttonchopswitcello]

Do you have sheet music for this?

[eliaskahila]

@muttonchopswitcello If you want to learn it, yes, i´m a professional cello teacher (also through Skype, so anywhere in the world possible) and i can teach it to you, notes included.

Nice work! Are you interested in collaborating on a recording session via email? Have a studio here in the USA and have collaborated with many musians from around the world this way but never a a Cellist to join in! Let me know. I can send you some samples of my work. Thanks and look forward to hearing back - Brian

@eliaskahila Dude, bros, I am American and I'd Fly all the way to Finland to see you guys play:) I want to learn to play the violin and later, if I have the ability, the cello. You are Apocalyptica status:)

[eliaskahila]

@4everKingdomHeart thanks alot. please spread the word. we have no label/management but we need one!

[alesksk8]

AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



[RightBrainsMusic]

Man your playing is so soulful... no words, thank You for that !!! (off top: doest they do cellos with cut-away body ? haha I think You would rock it out on high notes !)

[eliaskahila]

@RightBrainsMusic thanks. they dont have celloes with cut-away body, but that would be neet haha! feel free to join my bands fb site... with the band live it sounds even better

[gwschwinge]

I think I'm going to go buy a cello now...

[eliaskahila]

@gwschwinge i can be your teacher

[LegendGuitarGod]

i about started drooling and passed out around 0:01 and then was revived by the awesomeness around 0:02

[eliaskahila]

@LegendGuitarGod ...wow, then what happened? :) Haha, thanks bro! We have more goodies, with my band, on our facebook presense, feel free if you wanna keep updated on the next vids

[LegendGuitarGod]

cello guy kinda looks like flea but with hair.

[eliaskahila]

@LegendGuitarGod Thank you for that, even though i think we dont really have similaritys. I guess its the angle. But Flea is my idol..

[MKarvat]

AWESOME

[eliaskahila]

@MKarvat thanks. we have some incredible stuff with the whole band on the way but may not be able to go for it without a label or management. Help us spread the word! It´s life or death career wise situation now. Anybody know a label guy or management guy to show these clips?

[helmsley777]

Woww!!! Finnish people just Kick ass!!! I'm not at all surprised that this dude is from the land of Ville valo, Tarja Turunen, Lauri Ylonen and Eicca Toppinen (Sorry abt the accents, My shit English keyboard does not allow me to type them)... Wayy to go man!!! aaaaand this goes to my facebook profile rightaway. More people need to see this!!! X-D

[eliaskahila]

@helmsley777 thanks a lot! Great to hear you posted it on FB, that is exactly what we need to spread it! You may also join our Facebook fanpage for updates on new tour dates and videos.

[helmsley777]

@eliaskahila Already did man!!! :-D

[Toby13baller]

Fuck U guys R SOOOOOOOOO GOOD!!!!!!

[dubblef]

i cant stop listening to your music!

since we're both big fans of rhcp and mj i have a few suggestions if you dont mind: dont forget me, cant stop or hey would be amazing, and from mj i think they dont really care about us would sound great!

if not, keep posting your preferences ;)

[eliaskahila]

@dubblef thanks. we´d love to do new clips (it takes long time and is hard work the way we do it) but we are in a situation with no label or management... 21 years of hard work, we are professional muso´s so we need one to be able to continue but we cant if it stays this way. Anybody know anyone? Show these clips to somebody you think could help us.
