Liam performed at our cocktail hour and during our first dance at our wedding. Couldn’t recommend him enough!!!!
Liam was easy to work with, super responsive, and worked hard to personalize his set for our wedding based on our specific requests. Our guests raved about him all night.
We were looking for music for our wedding ceremony that would match the tone of an intimate outdoor/garden setting and would also have us worry-free that it would all go smoothly. Liam was perfect for this! He was great to communicate with, had a great selection of music options for us to pick from and the day-of was seamless. Our guests said the violin was the perfect touch to setting the tone for our ceremony and it made it very special for us. Thanks Liam!
Liam played the violin at my engagement proposal, and he was amazing. He played all the songs I chose perfectly, making the moment really special. He was also great at going along with the surprise, which made everything even better. Liam is talented and professional, and I would definitely recommend him to anyone!
Liam performed at our wedding a couple of weeks ago and it certainly made our ceremony feel extra special. It was exactly as I had imagined walking down the aisle with the violin in the background. He played all of the songs we selected and was really easy to communicate with throughout the whole process. I can't recommend him enough!
I recently had the pleasure of booking Liam for a private birthday party, and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. Liam's music selections were perfect, appealing to an audience of all ages, including older guests who definitely appreciated his 70s music. His repertoire ranged from classic pop and rock music to contemporary favorites, ensuring everyone found something to enjoy.
The sound quality was outstanding, thanks to Liam's top-notch professional gear. Every note was crystal clear, adding to the overall ambiance of the event. His performance truly elevated the party, creating a memorable and classy atmosphere that our guests are still talking about.
Liam's professionalism shone through in every aspect of the booking process and performance. He arrived early to set up, was impeccably dressed, and interacted with our guests with warmth and grace. I can't recommend Liam Calhoun highly enough for any event where you want to add a touch of sophistication and unforgettable musical experience. Thank you, Liam, for making our celebration truly special!
Liam was amazing, provided exactly what I was looking for. He did a special request for me and it came out beautiful. He went above and beyond and grabbed me a bouquet also for the surprise. Liam is professional, punctual, dedicated and an amazing Violinist. Highly recommend him.
Liam performed as a violinist during our reception for our wedding late in October of 2022. He intrigued our guests with his positive demeanour and more importantly, with the way he performed as a violinist. He did exactly what we expected him to do! He was punctual and arrived prepared. Liam was flexible from the very beginning, extremely responsive via email and travelled to Mississauga to provide his service. Liam provided a list of popular songs played at weddings, which my husband and I found highly convenient. It enabled us to select songs much easily and quickly. It was also great having Liam play requested songs such as Aladdin “A Whole New World.” Even though it wasn’t’ on his list of songs he played it without a doubt. You won’t regret services from Liam! We highly recommend him and will always refer him to our friends and family. Thank you Liam for playing an imperative role at our wedding, you made our dream come true!

Thank you Jessica! I had no plans at the time of doing a lot more solo violin playing with tracks, but it's partially in thanks to you and Alberto booking me and really enjoying the result!
Liam was a welcomed addition to our volunteer appreciation luncheon! Liam was easy to work with through the booking process, and provided a long list of songs for us to choose from.

Hiring a violinist who performs live at events with backing tracks can bring a unique and captivating musical experience to any occasion. When the violinist tailors their sound to a specific vibe desired by the client and fine-tunes their sound system, clients and event planners can expect an extraordinary performance.
I understand the importance of creating a customized atmosphere that aligns with the client's vision. By discussing the desired vibe and mood of the event, I can curate a musical experience that perfectly complements the occasion, whether it's a sophisticated gala, a romantic wedding, or a lively corporate gathering. With their ability to select appropriate songs and type of accompanying tracks, the violinist seamlessly blends their live performance with the desired ambiance, creating a cohesive and captivating musical journey.
My commitment to delivering exceptional sound quality is paramount. I work closely with the event's audio engineer or sound technician to fine-tune their sound system, ensuring that my my sound output is properly amplified and balanced. This attention to detail guarantees an amazing auditory experience for the audience, where every note and nuance can be heard with clarity and precision.
I've been playing the violin since age 7, and started performing with other string players at weddings and other events since age 15. After establishing my violin + piano duo, The Fox Duo, in 2015, I've been requested more and more often to perform as a solo violinist accompanied by tracks. I love the diversity of music that I'm able to play with this type of performance, and my 11+ years experience as a hobbyist music producer allows me to craft interesting electric violin tones and edit backing tracks to create a super polished and musically diverse set.
