Hello! I am a fiddle player/violinist who's been playing for 20+ years and 15+ years professionally. I play for all types of events, from weddings, to festivals, to parties, to house concerts. I primarily perform fiddle music - celtic, bluegrass, swing, canadian old time, etc, but also have plenty of experience playing classical music (especially wedding repertoire). Depending on the gig, I can bring along some supporting musician pals, or can fulfill gig solo. I'm also a full-time music teacher.
Everyone at the event enjoyed the music. He read the room and knew when to stop playing for the speech time, and when to play again to keep the party going.
Thank you!
We had the pleasure of having Kai perform at our wedding, and he truly made our day unforgettable. His talent and professionalism were evident from the moment he began playing, creating a beautiful atmosphere that our guests couldn't stop talking about. He perfectly captured the emotion and elegance we wanted for our special day, and his music added a magical touch to our ceremony and reception. We highly recommend Kai to anyone looking to elevate their event with exceptional live music!
Kai did a great job with my surprise proposal playing an instrumental version of Photograph by Ed Sheeran. I couldn’t be happier with his performance. Thanks again, Kai!
Kai was great to have at our cocktail party. He was so friendly and easy going in our chats leading up to the event, and a very talented musician. Kai’s music really brought the whole party together. Thank you Kai!
Kai is punctual, delivered exactly what I asked for. Would definitely recommend, thank you!
Price Range: $150 and up
I provide fiddle/violin performances solo or accompanied with musician friends for all kinds of events
Kai Gronberg grew up in Abbotsford, BC, and has been playing the fiddle since he was 4 years old. Kai has had a diverse and rich upbringing within the Canadian old time fiddling scene, playing for many dances, & festivals, as well as attending camps and competitions both as a student and now instructor. In his youth, he studied with some of Canada’s premier fiddle players, such as Mike Sanyshyn, Calvin Vollrath, and Patti Kusturok. His performance resume has taken him far and wide, from playing at the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics, all the way to the Great Wall of China. He remains an active performer and entertainer across Canada. Kai has a decorated resume at various fiddle contests across the country. He is a 3-time John Arcand Fiddle Fest champion, 2-time Canadian Grand Masters finalist, and 3-time BC Provincial Champion. Kai now resides in Vancouver and takes an active role teaching, jamming, and performing where he hopes to continue to inspire and share his passion for fiddle music for years to come.
