Your life. Your music. Fiddlerock!
Celebrated for her "sensitive and soulful interpretations" and a "tone reminiscent of the greats of the past" (Chronicle Musique) violinist Casey McGrath merges the worlds of classical and popular music into Fiddlerock!, a one-woman show where technical prowess infuses innovative, exciting, and moving original arrangements of the most timeless classics in rock and pop— all on four violin strings.
Casey brings symphonic lyricism to her covers of Kansas and Sam Smith, the technical brilliance her favorite concertos to her arrangements of Metallica and Guns-n-Roses, and the harmonic heart of composers like Bach and Beethoven to her covers of Tool and Led Zeppelin. Violin, for Casey, has always been about connection, and Fiddlerock!— with its multi-genre repertoire, artistic versatility, and personable, accessible covers—brings not only audience and artist together, but people of all ages, backgrounds, and cultures. At a Fiddlerock! show, it's not just about the music—it's about your life.
What the press says...
It’s rare that you’ll hear a fraction of Casey McGrath's talent on the airwaves. Classical music may not be the most accessible of genres... But it’s tracks such as McGrath's that have the power to change just that.
— Amelia Vandergast, A&R Factory
When most people think about violin performers, they think about classical pieces and timeless orchestral scores. While Casey McGrath has a classical background, she approaches music with a more personal twist, covering a wide range of songs spanning different genres. Her phrasing is technically accomplished, yet she also has a very emotional and energetic approach to her violin playing. . . . Casey is a masterful violinist, and she knows how to get some astonishing dynamics, which highly reflect the essence of her effervescent personality. The way she is able to recreate some iconic melodies and truly make them her own is absolutely groundbreaking, and Fiddlerock! is fun for people of all musical backgrounds!
