Overview

I'm Genevieve Gilbert, a pop/classical/jazz electric violinist. For the last two years, I played weekends at Cleveland’s newest high-profile restaurant, Marble Room, strolling and grooving for Cleveland professional athletes and patrons of all ages. Along with working at the Marble Room, I performed solo violin with backing tracks for the Hilton Cleveland Hotel, Renaissance Cleveland Hotel, and corporate, and private events.
I've relocated to the Austin area and am available for engagements. With over 200 pop songs and a catalog of jazz and classical music, I can provide a unique performance for your client or venue's entertainment needs.

Wedding

Genevieve is such a gem. She was so responsive and helpful during planning and during the day of our wedding, she arrived early and really lit up the entire room with her art. We gave her a small list of song choices and she created a playlist catered to our taste in music which was a lot of top40 hits
