about
Violeta Vicci is a multifaceted, contemporary violinist, vocalist and composer, she feels comfortable genre-crossing from classical to ambient, multilayered electronics, her influences ranging from Bach to Brian Eno. Since starting the violin at the age of four and giving her concert debut at the age of fifteen, she fulfilled her long life dream to study at the Royal Academy of Music. Violeta has collaborated with the likes of Thom Yorke, Elbow, The Orb, Jonsi (Sigur Ros) and Fontaines DC. She also guests with folk rock pioneers Steeleye Span and more recently writes and performs with psychedelic rock band TTRRUUCES. “We didn’t have a TV when growing up, so spending time in nature, building castles in the sand, reading, playing music and listening to fairy tales, played a big role in creating my inner magical universe.” During lockdown, Vicci started “Live Music in Nature” a series of live-streamed concerts performed in beautiful natural locations around the UK, combining strings, voice and effect pedals to create a soundtrack to nature. She has been nominated for a Royal Philharmonic Society Award 2021 and has released two studio albums to date. (2019, 2021) In October 2022, Violeta released “Autovia Remixed” on label Liquid Sound Design.
