Thunderstruck
A Classic Rock Tribute

From ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ to ‘Free Bird’ - an unforgettable night of strings and light.

“Rock and roll meets classical music in a gorgeously crafted hour of music.”

Step into a world of shimmering light, where legendary rock anthems are reborn through a single violin — played with the fire and intensity of a full band.

This is not just a tribute show. This is Blue Violin — a genre-defying, conservatory-trained virtuoso with sold out shows from the Sydney Opera House to Carnegie Hall, and now brings his world tour to Australia, Europe, Asia, and across the U.S.

Often described as “Ed Sheeran meets Lindsey Stirling,” Blue Violin delivers fiery virtuosity and cinematic flair in every performance.

Blue Violin has been earning international accolades for genre-bending performances that blur the line between classical virtuosity and rock energy.

A Classic Rock Tribute

In this electrifying solo candlelight concert, Blue Violin transforms classic rock into cinematic soundscapes using live looping, searing violin solos, and explosive arrangements. The result: a visceral, immersive performance that shatters expectations and stirs the soul.

Setlist includes iconic anthems like:

“Thunderstruck” – AC/DC

“Free Bird” – Lynyrd Skynyrd

“Kashmir” – Led Zeppelin

“Stairway to Heaven”, “Bohemian Rhapsody”, “Crazy Train”, and more

Critics call him “the best rock and roll violinist of a generation” and “electrifying” — and audiences from sold out shows around the globe agree. With a sound as bold as the flames surrounding him, Blue Violin invites you to experience a night where rock meets ritual, and violin meets firelight.
