Ryan hired Jack Mitchell for a Private event (available in Telford)
"We booked Joanne to play for us at our elopement wedding, the venue we got married at had no electricity but that was no problem for Joanne as she had the equipment to get round this problem. Her skill is phenomenal and she created such a great atmosphere. As the groom I was greeted by Joanne and her energy just put me at ease and calmed my nerves. She was so friendly and she played music for me while I waited for the bride which was fantastic. So thank you Joanne you are such a talented violinist."

FAQs about hiring Wedding Violinists in Telford
Take the stress out of hiring musicians with Encore
What kind of music can a violinist play?
Pretty much anything! Violinists will usually be most comfortable playing classical music, but that doesn't mean they won't be able whip up fresh renditions of your favourite pop, folk, or jazz tunes. Best to check first before asking them to play krautrock though.
Will I need to provide the violinist with any equipment?
Other than a seat for breaks, probably not. If your venue is small, they will likely play unamplified. All they'll need to make the music happen is their violin, a bow, and a receptive audience (oh, and probably a music stand). If your venue is larger, they should be able to provide amplification.
Do violinists normally play with backing tracks?
It depends. If you only want the violinist’s performance to include classical pieces, they probably won’t need backing tracks. If the violinist’s performance includes pop songs or other styles, they may be able to provide backing tracks to fill out their performance. They’ll often perform the melody line of popular tunes, alongside pre-prepared backing tracks (think: ‘Perfect’ by Ed Sheeran, or ‘Skyfall’ by Adele - these songs sound great played on violin!).
