Joey’s performance was beautiful and she made our proposal a truly magical experience. She expertly played a range of songs from different genres including Pop, Studio Ghibli, R&B, Classical and Bollywood, with specific songs in the exact order that I requested. We were in awe of her talent and skill, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing violinist. Thank you so much Joey! 🙏🏼

Thank you Joey for making our special day that much more special. Things didn’t quite go to plan and Joey took the initiative and got all set up on her own and entertained our guests. She took many special requests songs from us, such as the Pokemon theme song, Studio Ghibli classics and last minute wedding intros. I’d wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone looking for a unique violinist experience. 🙌🏾 Thank you again From Yahya & Sadia

Joey’s musical set was the perfect surprise for my wife on our wedding ceremony. Considering how last minute this addition was, Joey was considerate, professional and still squeezed in some song requests adding the perfect entertainment to our special day. All our guests loved the playlist choice with a good balance of multiple genres and both myself and wife 100% recommend Joey for any events. We’re eternally grateful for the classic touch you added to our day. David

I booked Joey to accompany a proposal in London and she added more to the experience than I could even have imagined. Her playing was beautiful and making all the arrangements was simple, collaborative, and - very importantly - stress free. Even when we had some last minute logistical challenges, Joey coped much better than I would have had I been left alone to deal with them - something which was massively appreciated. Joey’s playing is and will remain a massive part of how we remember the day every time we think about it and both of us could not have been happier. Thank you and I hope we have an excuse to hear Joey again one day!

Customer questions

Do you have different line-up options?

I usually do solo acts, but can accommodate different options, such as playing duets with violin/ piano/ cello etc!

What if my timings change after I've booked you?

I will do my best to accommodate the new schedule. Ultimately, my goal is to work with you and accommodate your needs to the best of my abilities, while also considering my own schedule and commitments. Just let me know and we can find a solution that works for both of us.

How much time do you need to set up?

I usually arrive 45 minutes to an hour before the performance time. However the actual set-up time will take no longer than 15-20 minutes!

Can I pick the pieces you play from the set list?

I've curated my set lists over numerous performances, tailoring them to guarantee that everyone at your event not only enjoys themselves but also hits the dance floor. However, I'm more than happy to have a conversation and work together to ensure that the music aligns perfectly with the atmosphere you want for your event.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes, absolutely! I bring my own instrument and PA system to play acoustically/electronically.
