I am a live violinist who can elevate your event to the next level. I am classically trained and now specialize in pop music(though I can still play classical music of course!). I have performed with the likes of Elton John & Machine Gun Kelly as well as on ABC's 'Modern Family'. I now make my living playing live events. The most popular setup I do is violin with pop backing tracks, but can of course do acoustic or some variation of the two. I can also hire and play with other musicians if you have specific instrumentation in mind. Check out my video on here to see me in action!
I went to a concert at The Viper and spoke with Nick about working a party for me. I loved his music as well as his stage presence. He gets completely immersed in his performance as does his audience. Nick was great at my party. The guests were quite entertained. He was a hit. No question I’ll have him at my next party/event.
Do not miss the next performance offered by Nick...they will not be gratis much longer. He put on an awarding winning performance at Mollie Malones and brought down a packed house. Highly recommend!!
I am an event planner, and was looking for a Violinist… I’ve been in this business for 25+ years and let me tell you, by far he is one of the best!
I was referred to Nick to play at one of my events, and ended up hiring him for a few more! Nick is extremely talented to say the least. He is professional, and the nicest person you would ever meet! Loved being part of those moments seeing my clients and their guests hypnotized as Nick played.
One particular event was a Harry Potter themed wedding that incorporated music from the movie and let me tell you it was MAGICAL! 🦉⚡️ …
Looking forward to working with him again!
Where do I begin! I searched for almost 4 months for the perfect violinist for our wedding. When I found Nick I was blown away by his talent. Not only that, but he was so easy to work with and genuinely cared about making our day so special. He took any request I threw his way and exceeded all expectations. He flew from LA to VT for our wedding and played during both our ceremony and reception. Now 2 years later and we still get family and friends asking about Nick! I would recommend him to everyone!!!!! Do yourself a favor and book Nick, you will not be sorry.
Nick played at my wedding back in August of 2022 and it was incredible. Listening to his music ring through our church sounded amazing. Would recommend 1000%.
When I heard Nick play on Main Street in Santa Monica, I told my fiancé that we needed him to play at our wedding. We contacted Nick and met with him to chat about the specifics. We felt very comfortable working with Nick, and he was so easy to work with. From there, I emailed Nick the songs we wanted played during our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. Nick had to learn a few of the songs as there were some classical pieces and a hymn. He did wonderfully! Having Nick added that extra special live music vibe that made our wedding day so special. We loved hearing him play and we received many compliments about his playing during our cocktail hour. I couldn't recommend Nick more for any event you might have. He plays from the soul and you can feel it!
I manage a luxury apartment community and as such I only want the best for my residents, this is exactly what you will receive with Nick. He is uber talented and knows his instrument and still runs all of his own audio.
Professional and punctual. We couldnt be more pleased to have a violinist added to our entertainment. i will urge you yonbook early as he reservation book fills up quickly! Thanks Nick see you soon!
