BIOGRAPHY

Described as a Red Haired Gypsy, Yamaha Australia endorsed Violinist Sophie Serafino tells stories from around the world. Her music is passionate, sexy, a breath of fresh air. It’s real and uncontrived.

A violinist, singer and songwriter described as “Annie Lennox meets Nigel Kennedy,” Sophie has performed all over world-wide with her unique blend of music.

The style evolved after years of experimentation with many musical genres, has been described as entirely unique. Sophie mixes world music with rock, dance, some Middle Eastern influence and classically inspired strings.
