Electric violinists offer something acoustic players cannot: full volume control, effects processing and a clean amplified signal that fills any venue without feedback. Most electric violin players are classically trained musicians who have expanded their repertoire to include pop, rock, dance, film scores and electronic music. They typically perform with backing tracks, loop pedals or alongside DJs, giving them a much broader sonic range than a traditional acoustic violinist.
The most common format is a solo electric violinist performing to pre-mixed backing tracks, covering everything from classical crossover to current chart hits. Some electric violin artists take this further with LED-lit instruments and choreographed visual shows, making them a strong alternative to LED musicians for events that need a visual centrepiece. Electric violinists also pair naturally with DJs, similar to the growing trend of live musician and DJ combinations, where the violin adds a live melodic layer over electronic beats. For weddings, electric violin performers often provide dual setups: acoustic for the ceremony and electric for the reception and evening party. This versatility sets them apart from traditional violinists and fiddlers, who typically focus on unplugged performance. Many electric violin players also offer wireless setups, letting them roam freely among guests during drinks receptions or between tables at dinner.
Weddings are the most popular booking for electric violinists, where they can cover ceremony music, cocktail hour background sets and an energetic evening performance all in one act. Corporate events are another strong fit, particularly product launches, gala dinners and awards ceremonies where the visual impact of an electric violin performance adds polish to the occasion. Private parties, milestone birthdays and New Year celebrations also work well. For wedding ceremonies specifically, many electric violin acts switch to acoustic or semi-acoustic mode for the formal parts of the day, then plug in for the party. They also complement string quartets at larger weddings where both classical ceremony music and a modern evening performance are needed.
Rates for electric violin performers range from $150 to $1,150+, with an average price of $400. Standard bookings typically cover two to three sets of 30 to 45 minutes each. Pricing varies based on performance duration, whether the act provides their own PA and lighting, travel distance, and the complexity of the performance. LED shows and acts that include custom arrangements or DJ collaboration tend to sit at the higher end of the range.
The average price for Violinists (Electric) is $400 (USD). Above you will also find a budget price and high end price. Contact the supplier you like for an accurate quote.
