Violin in Manchester
One-woman string section- arranging, remote recording, collaborating. Easygoing but professional. I'm comfortable playing anything from folk and rock to Arabic (which I've studied and performed extensively). Can create lush orchestral to gypsy string arrangements, and many in between. Worked with Natalie Merchant, Lou Reed, David Byrne and others.
Nashville- based violinist and string arranger with 15+ years of experience whose clients include Caitlyn Smith, Mickey Guyton, Paris Paloma, COIN, Matthew Perryman Jones and Eric Church.
I'm a Grammy-nominated multi-instrumentalist specializing in recording and arranging strings. I'm also the violinist, rhythm, guitarist, and background vocalist in the band Kansas. I play acoustic and electric violin, viola, chin cello, guitar, electric bass, and mandol. I am also good at editing music. Hit me up for your project!
