Dwayne Beach - Violinist - New York
Event Type: Broadway show
9th November 2023
View This Profile - Dwayne Beach - Violinist - New York
Hi Dwayne! Sorry for randomly popping into your DMs. Just wanted to say that I had the pleasure of seeing the Jagged tour a few days ago in Fort Worth, TX. As an adult hobby violinist, you inspire me so much, seeing people pursue arts as a career and a viable career, and as a person of color, no less. You and the rest of the orchestra were fantastic and I’m so honored to have witnessed y’all’s artistry. Thank you for inspiring this theatre-loving Taiwanese-American Texan 🫶🏼
Warmly,
Jackie Fu

Folks who hadn’t moved in years were suddenly dancing and singing along, Dean Bohana made it an unforgettable time! Highly recommended!

View This Profile - Aayushi Karnik - Electric Guitarist - New York
Aayushi Karnik grew up in perhaps the most untraditional place for an aspiring blues guitarist: Surat, India. Yet despite that, the 26 year-old Karnik sounds like a young Stevie Ray Vaughn or Buddy Guy. On her debut album Troublemaker, the follow up to her debut EP The Summer Children, Karnik showcases her generational talent alongside two New York City veterans, Todd Turkishir (drums) and Gregory Jones (bass).

Tomina was the musician for our wedding ceremony. She was amazing, I couldn’t have asked for a more wonderful harpist. She was very accommodating with music selections and all the questions I emailed to her. Her beautiful playing also added to the reception. I feel very lucky to have hired Tomina and it is my pleasure to recommend her. If the opportunity presents, I would not hesitate to contact her again.
