Tofunmi's profile picture
Violinist
Pontefract

Hi, I’m a 17 year old violinist with over 15 years of experience. I started playing at age 3 and currently perform with National Youth Orchestra, having previously played with the Hertfordshire Youth Orchestra. I love creating a romantic atmosphere at weddings with pieces like Canon in D and A Thousand Years, alongside a mix of classical and modern favourites. I am passionate, reliable, and professional and I will be honoured to be part of your special day.

Customer questions

What do your clients love most about your performances?

Clients love the warm, elegant atmosphere I create with my violin and my versatility across classical, pop, and R&B. I’m professional, reliable, and adapt easily to any venue. My expressive tone, quality backing tracks, and ability to read the room help make every event feel memorable and personalised.

Which venues have you performed at in the past?

I’ve performed at weddings, school events, and a busy restaurant setting. These experiences have helped me develop confidence, adaptability, and strong live performance skills, whether playing for elegant ceremonies, lively crowds, or more intimate audiences.

Which artists have you been most influenced by?

My biggest influences range from Lindsey Stirling and Yiruma to contemporary artists like Laufey, Drake, and Lana Del Rey. I love blending classical technique with modern sound to create something fresh and emotional.

What is the most high profile gig you've performed?

A wedding performance for a large guest list, where I provided both ceremony and reception music. It was a highly visible event that helped me refine my live performance presence.

Do you have different line-up options?

Yes, I offer a solo violin performance with the option of acoustic or amplified setup, depending on the venue.

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

If your timings change after booking, I’m very flexible. Just let me know as soon as possible and I’ll do my best to accommodate the new schedule. Minor adjustments are usually no problem, and I always aim to keep everything smooth and stress-free for your event.

How much time do you need to set up?

I typically need around 10–15 minutes to set up. Since my equipment is compact and efficient, I can get ready quickly and discreetly, ensuring there’s no disruption to your event.

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

Yes, absolutely. You are welcome to choose any pieces from my set list, and I’m happy to tailor the performance to your preferences. If there’s a particular mood or theme you’d like, I can also help curate a selection that fits perfectly.

Do you bring all the equipment you need to perform?

Yes, I provide all the equipment needed for my performance. I bring my violin, professional PA system, cables, and everything required to set up and deliver a high-quality sound. All I need from the venue is access to a power source and a small performance space.

Can you learn specific pieces before the event?

Yes, I can learn specific pieces for your event. I’m happy to prepare special requests, and there is a £30 fee per song to cover rehearsal and arrangement time. If you send your choices in advance, I’ll make sure everything is perfectly prepared for your day.
