Overview
Violinist with over 30 years of performing experience. Although classically trained, I play pop, rock, folk, Latin, and country covers. I've performed for several events and venues in Colorado, New Mexico, Tennessee, and Georgia.
Nashville Wine & Food Festival 2015
“Early in the day, the weather looked dreary, but it didn’t stop the festivities. The show must go on! As soon as we arrived, the rain stopped and the sun made an appearance. Things got brighter when we arrived at the ticket tent, where Stephanie Wilson sounded amazing on her violin. She welcomed attendees with great music, setting the tone for the festival.”- Zombies In My Blog

Stephanie was incredible. She was easy to work with, accommodated our music choices and communicated promptly. Our wedding day was a bit colder than expected and she was an absolute trooper. Thank you again for the amazing performance Stephanie, you helped make our day even more amazing.

We were absolutely thrilled with the performance by Stephanie at our wedding! She went above and beyond by learning a song last minute, which added a special touch to our day. Her professionalism and helpfulness throughout the process made everything run smoothly. We couldn't have asked for a better musician to be a part of our special day. Thank you so much!

Stephanie was very professional. She took the time to meet with us before event, to see if we had any questions or special requests. She was on time, and played all requested songs as well as songs she suggested. It was my dream come true to have a violinist perform at a beautiful venue. All of our guests loved her. We were getting compliments all night.

We reached out to Stephanie to play some nontraditional songs for our wedding ceremony, including "Sleepwalk" by Santo & Johnny and "Caribbean Blue" by Enya. We received a response the next day; she had learned both pieces and sent us clips of each. The songs are so different but her soon on them made them blend perfectly together. We were sold! When Stephanie had to make an unexpected move out of state we understood but were sad to not have her play for our wedding. After a long search we were unable to find the sound we wanted from other violinists. We reached out again and asked if she would record the songs for us to play over speakers, and she agreed. Stephanie was extremely professional and responsive, listened to our needs, and made adjustments to get the perfect sound. Her music absolutely made our wedding day so special, and I cannot recommend her enough for your celebration. Thank you!

You can't go wrong if you choose Stephanie! We booked her for our outdoor wedding in the fall. She was very communicative and provided us with a wide selection of music to choose from. When our wedding day arrived, she was friendly, the music was beautiful, and our guests were very impressed!

Booking Info
Price Range: Contact for rates
Gig Length: 30 - 180 minutes
Languages: English
What to Expect
I am a great fit for weddings, proposals, dinners, social events, festivals, corporate events, funerals, and holiday parties. I use backtrack accompaniment which provides a full & exciting sound!! Depending on the song, event and/or location, I will use both my acoustic violin and my electric violin.
I'm experienced in classical, folk, rock, Latin, country, praise & worship, and pop. If a special song is desired, please have it to me prior to the event.
*MOUNTAINTOP/OUTDOOR EVENTS*
I am available for outdoor and mountaintop events. If your event is mountaintop, appropriate transportation to the top must be agreed upon before I accept the gig. Mountain weather can be very unpredictable and the logistics involved to get to the peak are more detailed, so rates will vary depending on location. I have coverage for inclement weather and areas that have no shade (10x10 black tent/canopy), but if the rain is too heavy or the winds are too high, I may not be able to play outdoors. However, I may still be able to provide music (via speakers). Some mountaintop venues have indoor backup space, so that is a great option!
**RATES & DISCOUNTS**
I offer discounted rates for locals in Chaffee County, Colorado and for multiple booked events (e.g. proposal & wedding). My rates include practice time, any music purchased, travel time, setup and teardown, and performance time. Tips are not required, but they are absolutely appreciated!
About
I have been playing violin for over 35 years. I have played with several ensembles and multiple indoor & outdoor events in Tennessee, Georgia, New Mexico and Colorado. I performed three years straight in the Nashville Food & Wine festival. I currently live in Colorado and travel throughout the state to play for special occasions.
Additional Booking Notes
I provide all of my own sound equipment. Power needs depend on location and event. I have a black 10x10 canopy/tent for coverage when I play outdoors. I wear concert black unless requested otherwise.
