Lawrence Gratton

Violin, guitar and a stompbox, looped live by one player, so the sound stacks up in layers well beyond a single line of melody. Lawrence has studied music and taught it, and the material moves between contemporary and classic. That makes a looping violinist a flexible pick for a wedding: gentle while you say your vows, fuller once the party starts. Lawrence is based in Labrador on the Gold Coast, and five videos on this page show how it comes together.
