Hi, I'm Joel 👋
Enthusiastic
Focused
Friendly
I'm an award winning events violinist who specializes in Live Looping & I've had the great pleasure of performing at hundreds of weddings across the UK & beyond.
I actually fell into the world of events by accident, when I used to travel around different cities busking & it was then that I got my first requests to play at weddings. This has also lead to some other amazing experiences, including playing with Birdy & supporting Coldplay in a stadium tour, performing my Live Looping set at Glastonbury Festival & playing some exciting events hosted by clients such as Google & Aston Martin.

HIGHLY recommend
Joel is such a talented artist and musician. We were so thrilled to have him play at our wedding and can't recommend him enough. His contemporary twist on modern classics (not to mention his own music) really gave our drinks reception an amazing atmosphere. Our guests kept asking about him! Joel was also a delight to communicate both before and on the day. We simply love Joel's music and can't wait to have another opportunity to ask him to play again! Highly, HIGHLY recommend. I can safely say,

I couldn’t recommend him enough!
Joel played at my best friend's wedding and he really made the whole ceremony that extra bit special. He’s an extremely talented musician and so many guests commented on how much they enjoyed his music - it will definitely be a part of the day that everyone remembers. I couldn’t recommend him enough!

Thank you for providing such fantastic service
Joel recently performed at our wedding, he was absolutely flawless. The music he provided was a beautiful accompaniment to our ceremony and drinks reception. We are so pleased he was able to perform on our special day and made the day even more perfect adapting songs on request to meet the demands of the day. Joel, thank you for providing such fantastic service and I hope we get to see you perform again soon.

Joel was fantastic
Joel was fantastic at our wedding in August. Almost every guest commented on how good he was throughout the day! Joel was responsive and polite in emails prior to the event and played during the ceremony and the afternoon. Joel contributed enormously to it being such a memorable day and we would highly recommend hiring him in future!

Beautiful music by a talented musician.
Joel recently performed at our wedding and he was absolutely seemless. He was able to adapt the songs we'd heard online to make the day as perfect as possible for us. We had multiple guests request his information throughout the day and complimented the brilliant performance he was able to provide throughout the ceremony and drinks reception. I could not have pictured it any better.
