    Watch Me Make a Song from Start to Finish...

    Hey everyone! This is the behind the scenes of my new original violin song 'Crusade'. This is my favourite original song yet! I compose, produce and record all of my original music by myself (with a little advice from my Dad towards the very end of it being completed) and so I wanted to share with you the entire process in one video from over the past year.

    Street performing in Santa Monica Vlog Santa Monica Pier & Third Street Promenade - Holly May Violin

    Hey! I thought I’d make this vlog video on how my street performances went in Santa Monica in March. Performing on the pier was the most difficult performance in my life because I was convinced that my bow was going to fly away in the wind. However, I loved performing, despite the wind and rain. Santa Monica has a great system for street performing and from the weekend I was there, it seemed to work really well and so it is my favourite place I have street performed so far!

    My 4 Year Violin Progress

    This is my 4 year violin progress video - I hope you enjoy it. I used to play violin when I was younger but I never practiced and became very un-motivated and so I quit. About 4 years ago, I started to play again, self-taught learning pop songs using a mixture between violin tabs on YouTube and learning by ear. I got a teacher in March 2021, who I have weekly online lessons with to work on classical music. I now love to play violin and I’m so happy that I picked it back up again.
