Aayushi Karnik - Electric Guitarist - New York City
Event Type: Blog post
25th March 2022
View This Profile - Aayushi Karnik - Electric Guitarist - New York City
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).

James Teal - Violinist - New York City
Event Type: Personal Surprise
6th January 2022
View This Profile - James Teal - Violinist - New York City
James did more than play an instrument today. I booked him to play a single song and he brought his funky light-up violin and enthusiastically transformed a cold, imposing chamber in the financial district into a momentary place of warmth and magic, giving our family a memory we will never forget.
He was a consummate pro, good natured, understanding, and responsive from start to finish.

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.
