About / Biography

Eimear is a professional wedding and events violinist offering unforgettable live music across Northern Ireland. Classically trained with a degree in Music, she brings the discipline of her training into a more modern, versatile style — creating performances that move seamlessly from elegant ceremony music to upbeat party favourites.

Her line-up is solo electric violin, performed with high-quality bespoke backing tracks and a professional PA system suitable for weddings, corporate events, and private functions. For intimate settings such as ceremonies, drinks receptions and dinners, Eimear provides a refined background atmosphere. For larger parties, she can switch into a roaming, wireless setup — mingling with guests on the dance floor and performing interactive sets of well-known songs to get the crowd involved.

Repertoire spans classical favourites, contemporary pop, Irish traditional, film themes, and party anthems, making each performance flexible and tailored to the event. From walking a bride down the aisle with timeless music, to filling a drinks reception with relaxed elegance, to lifting the energy at a late-night party with interactive sets, Eimear provides a unique violin experience that clients remember.

With years of professional experience performing throughout Ireland, the UK and Europe — including tours with Irish music and dance shows as the lead violinist, appearances at prestigious events and even a cameo in Demi Moore’s film 'Half Light' — Eimear brings both credibility and creativity to every performance.

Whether you’re planning a wedding, corporate event, or celebration, Eimear delivers polished, stylish live music designed to make every occasion unforgettable.

Technical Info

What are your basic technical requirements?

Performance space: A clear area of approx. 2m x 2m for setup of PA, mixer, and violin equipment.

Table: 1 small table (minimum 1m wide) or similar flat surface for mixing desk, wireless receiver, and accessories.

Power: At least 2 x standard 13A plug sockets near the performance area (extension leads provided if necessary).

Roaming performance: If wireless roaming is requested, this must be cleared with the venue in advance to ensure space for moving between guests and tables safely.

Set changes: If another band or act is booked after me, their setup must only begin once my equipment has been fully packed down. Shared sockets and overlapping setup can cause delays and technical issues.

Access: Reasonable access to the performance space is required before and after the event for equipment setup and breakdown.

Weather: For any outdoor performance, suitable cover must be provided to protect equipment from rain, wind, or direct sun.


Do you provide sound and lighting equipment?

I have my own small PA system and mixing desk, A Roland BA 330 speaker (single).

Larger PA system will be hired should it be required along with a sound technician if required for the venue size and number of guests.

How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Wedding Couple

“Good morning Eimear, YOU MADE OUR DAY!!!!! Every single guest praised you — you were hands down the BEST part of the wedding (vows aside 😊). Guests are still talking about you over and over, from our young nephews to the older relatives. Even the staff, the barmen, and the band were raving about you. Some of our relations, who never normally comment on weddings, couldn’t say enough good things.

The groom didn’t know you were coming — it was a surprise — and he absolutely loved it. He even got up dancing, which had everyone laughing and joining in. Guests thought it was planned, but it wasn’t! How amazing to have you playing while they danced.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you a million times over for making our wedding one of the best we and our guests have ever been to. You are a gifted, extremely talented, and wonderfully happy person. YOU MADE OUR WEDDING."
