Overview
Singing, violin, and music in general are my passion! I never perform without putting my entire heart into each note. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Vocal Music from Eastern Michigan University and I have professional violin skills as well as some piano and guitar skills. My main focus of study in school was vocal music, however, I have been playing the violin for over 20 years. Music brings me so much joy, and I would love to share that joy with others. I have a lot of performance experience and am flexible; I can sing or play whatever genre (and language) of music that you want for your wedding or other event! I have sung in English, Italian, German, French, Korean, and Spanish.

Carrie was so great! She was so easy to work with and plan with. She coordinated with our church musician, making everything so easy for us. She is absolutely a skilled musician, leaving all of our wedding guests raving about her. We also left all of our cocktail hour music to her, and she absolutely nailed it. We are so grateful for Carrie!

Beautiful playing. Was patient and flexible with all the changes due to covid circumstances. Thank you so much again!
Violinist
Carrie was spectacular. She was prepared and hit all the right notes at the right times. Best thing for us was the specially requested songs we asked for; she knew every last one of them and played them wonderfully and on cue. Easily affordable. Extremely easy to work with! Her communication leading up to the event was on point and timely.

Carrie was wonderful at my father’s memorial. She went out of her way to learn a couple of songs he loved, and she sounded great.

Carrie did a great job yesterday at the funeral mass for my mother-in-law. Her violin solos and her solo of Ave Maria was beautiful. We received many compliments. Carrie was very professional, responded quickly to emails and phone calls and was a pleasure to work with.

Spectacular! Incredibly talented! Professional! Carrie did all of the thinking for me. If I could give her 10 Stars, I would!

Carrie was everything we hoped for and More! She made sure to contact me prior to our event to select the perfect music and ask a few questions. I don’t have the words to describe Carrie’s talent and professionalism. I didn’t have to make any decisions on the day of my event. Carrie handled everything (and seemed to know exactly what I’d choose if I were making the decisions). This was a huge relief! She was incredibly professional. Carries talent is impossible to put into words or to capture on video. Her music is mesmerizing. Thank you, Carrie.

We're so glad we chose Carrie as the violinist for our wedding ceremony! She was very talented, professional, and pleasant to work with. Carrie learned and played all of the songs I requested, from multiple genres. The music sounded beautiful and complemented our outdoor beach wedding perfectly. We certainly recommend her. Thanks Carrie!

Carrie performed at our Long Term Care Home for our St. Patrick's Day party. She came up with a great list of Irish/Celtic Pub songs that the residents and staff greatly enjoyed. We receive very positive feedback from the residents and their families. We hope to Carrie back in the future!

Carrie performed a simple number at my proposal to my now Fiance! She was very flexible and thoughtful about the whole thing! She sounded great!
Thanks again Carrie!

Carrie played the violin and sang at my wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. Throughout the whole process she was sensitive and a great listener while also maintaing a vision for how the music would sound. She provided invaluable feedback for which songs would be good for the vibe I was looking for, and for the type of instruments we had available. Together, we picked the songs and put together an amazing program of music. My guests raved about her ability to sing many genres of music, as well as play the violin so well. The music helped make my day unforgettable and Carrie's personality put me at ease throughout the whole process. I will definitely remember her for any other event that needs music!
We worked closely together to pick the songs and put together
