Justin Curry
Virtuoso of the New School
Since the age of 16 Justin has toured playing violin and has graced stages in such cities as New York City, L.A., Tokyo, Osaka , among many others. Skilled in a variety of genres ranging from classical to new age and has had experience in many different positions ranging from solo acts to bands and ethnic music groups.
He has also taken part in several high profile international festivals such as the Kansai Foreign Music festival and has collaborated with Kansai MUSE in Japan.
He has also been featured on PBS, many musical blogs, a regular at high profile social clubs such as City Club LA, and has personally played as entertainment for the stars.
I booked him in earlier march 2024 for my wedding on 11/2/24. He sent a receipt and confirmed the date. In September I called him to confirm, no response via text message or social media. He has since posted on social media but refuses to respond and provide me my deposit back. He did not show up for our wedding causing us extra stress last minute. DO NOT BOOK
I booked Justin for my September wedding, I paid my deposit and he would not answer my messages. When he finally responded, he said that he’ll get back to me. He did not show up at my wedding.
I booked my event with Justin back in January/February for my event in September. I sent him half the money we agreed on. He was not responded to my texts, calls, and emails. I’m requesting my deposit back but of course he has ignored me. Do not recommend. Very Unprofessional.
A true artist...
I've gone through many instrumentalists while searching for this day (note instrumentalists, not artists)....
Many play woodenly, only play top 40 tracks, or full of only artifice in front of pretty backgrounds, lacking true musicianship and in reality playing only notes, lacking any real musicality...
Poor party tricks at best and pretenders at worst. Hopping on trends rather than creating a legacy.
Justin however is the real thing, a true artist, a Virtuoso and master of his craft, the difference between a footnote of the evening and center stage of a grand concert hall.
He wasn't part of the evening, he WAS the evening!
His musicality, his poise, his ability to not only play some of the world's most challenging caprices but passionately play requests on the spot, even songs he never heard before of every genre!
Every note I could feel... Every emotion conveyed from the music he played! It was not just an evening, it was an experience, one that I will remember for the rest of my life!
He is art, he is the violin!
Thank you Justin! You were definitely the highlight of my sister in law 50th’s birthday party ! Thank you for coming in early and being a pleasure to work with . Justin was able to play the playlist provided to him and had everyone enjoying R&b hits . First time ever hiring a musician from gigsalad and happy to have came across Justin! Will definitely book him again !
Response from Justin Curry:
Thank you so much! It was such a a great pleasure to make the party perfect!
The only thing I can say is that Justin was by far the best choice I have ever made to give my event it's WOW factor! An absolute professional and gentlemen, he worked with us on all of our requests, and was flexible even when our event fell behind schedule!
He was punctual, kind and with my years of attending classical concerts, ranks with (and above) many top soloists I have gone to see at Carnegie Hall! An absolute Virtuoso and master of his craft despite his young age!
I can't recommend him enough, Justin Curry is truly world class entertainment and a class act!
Response from Justin Curry:
Thank you so much for the kind words, I would love to work with you again anytime!
Justin is a very talented violinist and really came through for our event. He was easy to communicate with and accommodated our requests. He was an absolute pleasure to listen to and would hire him again.
He was awesome great skills had no problem at the event would love to do it again with him soon
Response from Justin Curry:
Thank you so much! We had an amazing time
I first saw Justin busking in new Orleans, and from the moment I heard him play, I knew he had to play at my birthday party later that week.
He was on time, ready to go, and entertained my friends and family. Everyone raved about his performance, and I can't wait to see him play again
Justin has been a wonderful asset for many of events time and time again. Always bringing excellence to every show he does!
Justin performed at our 22nd wedding anniversary for brunch at Brennan’s. He was punctual, prepared the song selections we agreed to and more. Our guests raved about the entertainment.
Excellent musician! Worked well with audience & respected the event. I would recommend Justin & not hesitate to use his service for any special event.
Justin was the epitome of awesomeness. He was the perfect beginning to my birthday party. He is so talented. He has a gift that is truly a treasure. His customer service was impeccable. I recommend him for anyone that wants to add a special touch to your event that will be a memorable occasion, please do yourself a favor and book Justin. I definitely will be booking him for upcoming events. He made us feel like he was part of the family. He truly blessed out event.
Response from Justin Curry:
Hello Q!
Thank you so much. I would do any of your events again. Hoping to play for you again soon!

More than just a event, but an experience, one that those who understand quality, those who can differentiate between the mediocre and the sublime...
I must warn that my services are not for everyone... In an era where so much noise is presented, where quick moving trends come and go faster than the daily news, and the musical equivalent to click-bait is has become the word of the day. I however offer a certain something that leaves me far and beyond others you may find...
It is simply prodigal virtuosity...
You will find many instrumentalists here, you may even find a few decent ones at that... However if you have made it to this point you aren't looking for someone who is merely competent, you are looking for a true artist.
An artist who has had prodigal abilities and experiences.
I stared my career at a young age of 16, my first international recital was in Tokyo Japan at the age tender of 17, an age that most of my contemporaries had not yet even graduated high school, yet I was playing soloist recitals and performances as a career.
My art is for those who want more, who need an elevated experience, who have an ear for quality and poise, not just competence but mastery! A performance from a person who has put in many times the 10,000 hours towards mastery, a world class virtuosic performance...
A tailored experience to an most exacting clientele... Some of which have included various political figures,. celebrities, VIPs, and those who wish to invest in an unforgettable world class experience...
If you also wish to experience the very best, I both implore and welcome you.
Congratulations and salutations, you just found your event's entertainment.
I have been a Professional soloist since age 16 and have been featured on stages globally from Tokyo Japan to New York city and beyond.
If you are for world-class entertainment for your next event, a musician that can jump seamlessly from Paganini to Led Zeppelin, and onward to The Beatles to The Devil Went Down to Georgia, and further into Funk, Rap, RnB, Jazz, Lofi, and beyond you are in tbe right place.
I guarantee an incredible experience that will be remembered for a lifetime by both you and your guests!
From small private living room concerts to playing on national stages in front of tens of thousands. From weddings and funerals, parties of all types and sizes, and even the occasional entertainment for international dignitaries, in my career I have s̶e̶e̶n̶ (played) it all.
I make each show/event I play tailored to each of my customers and ensure only the best is performed. From known classics to the exotic and new, even mid-performance requests are not out of reach in the slightest! I guarantee a most amazing performance to even the most discerning of ears.
If this sounds good to you, let's talk. I always have an ear open and ready to plan a most memorable event with you.
I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Warm regards,
Justin Curry
