We recently had the pleasure of hosting Pretty Stringz, an electric violinist, at our event, and the experience was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment she took the stage, she captivated the audience with her incredible talent and vibrant energy.

Pretty Stringz's performance was a perfect blend of classical finesse and modern flair. Her electric violin brought a unique and electrifying twist to both contemporary hits and timeless classics. Each note she played was filled with emotion and precision, demonstrating her exceptional skill and passion for music.

The setlist was diverse, catering to a wide range of musical tastes. She seamlessly transitioned from upbeat, high-energy tracks that had everyone dancing, to soulful melodies that created a more intimate and reflective atmosphere. This versatility ensured that every guest found something to enjoy.

One of the highlights of the evening was her interaction with the audience. Pretty Stringz has a natural charisma that draws people in. She engaged with the crowd, encouraging participation and making everyone feel like a part of the performance. Her stage presence was dynamic and confident, enhancing the overall experience.

The perfect Wow

Candace was incredible, she showed up a bit early to get the lay of the land, was already ready to go and even worked the crowd during her sets. She was absolutely stunning and her music was incredible. She was even able to collab with our DJ a little bit. Our attendees were so impressed with her, highly recommend!

Awesome musician and amazing spirit

This young lady is amazing. She performed for a 2 day Installation service for our new Pastor. What was awesome was that even though we went through some technical difficulties, she remained composed and performed extraordinary. That is true professionalism. I recognize talent when I hear and see it. This young lady is gifted. Her music is amazing. But it is her spirit that makes her truly shine. A true musician can make you feel the music not just hear it. The whole congregation was amazed at her music, skill and beauty. I would highly, highly recomend her for anything she sets out to do. We will definitely work with her again. Thank you dear for your love of music and dedication to so it will love.
