Bio:
Vivian Luo – Electric & Acoustic Violinist (violinviiv)
Boston’s viral electric violin phenom – the Columbia grad who left Wall Street to make the city’s streets (and your wedding) explode with Top-100 hits, hip-hop bangers, and EDM drops.
Classically trained for 27 years (since age 8), Vivian spent her weekdays closing private-equity deals and her weekends turning Harvard Square and MBTA platforms into open-air nightclubs. A few phone-filmed videos of her looping “Sweet But Psycho” over a DJ beat went mega-viral, earned her the office nickname “professional panhandler,” and convinced her to ditch spreadsheets for strings full-time.
Now she’s the violinist every modern couple wants walking down the aisle to an acoustic “Perfect,” then flipping the switch to electric and dropping “Blinding Lights,” “Levitating,” “Flowers,” or a custom mashup that makes the reception feel like the main stage at Tomorrowland.
