Renowned conductor Troy Miller will lead unique orchestral renditions of Cypress Hill's most iconic songs, including 'Insane in the Brain' and 'I Wanna Get High'.
Expressing their excitement, Cypress Hill stated, 'We are thrilled to be performing with the London Symphony Orchestra at the Royal Albert Hall.
