Violinist , singer and songwriter Sophie Serafino is a pioneer in the music industry .
Violinists are meant to have a certain sound , they’re meant to look a certain way , and they most certainly stick to similar genres . Well , that’s what we’re used to .
Sophie is different !

Her cutting edge , unique style is more of an electronic pop ,with classical , break beat
and funk influences.
This style has taken her all over the world with notable 2006 performances in Amsterdam at the Supperclub , and London venues such as Tiger Tiger , Fridge Bar and Cottons .

Sophie has just returned from a short tour of London and Paris .
Sophie joined ‘Popera’ singer Yves Baron in Paris performing at the famous ‘Mandalaray’, the SixSeven Club and the Music Hall , with rave reviews for her daring performances ,
which include choreographed sequences and audience interaction .
She has come a long way since her initial flirtation with new styles in 2001.

Sophie Serafino is a violinist , also a singer and songwriter , with a unique blend of pop music . The style evolved after years of experimentation with many musical genres , has been described as entirely unique .
Sophie mixes world music and impressionistic sounds with funk , dance and
classically inspired strings .

Sophie has received coverage in the Australian & American press for being the first violinist in Australia to perform lead vocals and a lead violin role as well as experiment with hip-hop ,
drum ‘n’bass and break beats with classical sounds and solo violin , with her first album in 2002 and follow up , "Colliding Worlds 2004" .
A trend followed by many . Even Vanessa Mae had not ventured that far !

Sophie played the violin from the age of 3 and had placed in competitions for violin performance and composition more than twenty times before the age of 16 , including the
City of Sydney Performing Arts Challenge .

Since her first solo performance of her own compositions was at the Hard Rock Café Sydney in 1999 , and follow up performances at the Cat ’n’ Fiddle Hotel and the Sandringham Hotel
and many other venues .
Her solo violin act has been described as
“cutting edge virtuoso- pop violinist: a sophisticated performer”.

Performing her own arrangements of the classics and her own original compositions , with her band , and as a roving performer with DJs , there is nothing out there that looks , sounds and moves like Sophie .
She has used her variety of skills to create her own unique show ,
“Sophie Serafino , Pop Violinist”.
