Electric Violinist

Hitchin

Music has always been a part of my life. I began as a recorder player (I mean who didn't?) soon went onto Violin. Over the years that follow, I found myself enjoying not only classical music, but felt compelled to play more 'modern' music. I fell in with Jazz player's and started playing pop / rock bands. Studied Classical, Jazz and pop at Goldsmiths. During this time I could be found busking in Camden, sessioning in studios accross London and beginning a different path as a Composer and Producer. In my time I have performed Live on Channel 4, Radio 1Extra, Radio 1, written music being played on ads and TV home and abroad as well as more recent spots on Radio 6. Am no stranger to large stages /Venues. As a multi-instrumentalist, I have performed Bass, Guitar, Piano and more recently have began to ay saxophones, so watch this space... I can be your DJ, performer (Violin) to backing track, band, duet... If I cannot fix it. I have a network of musical friends that can help me. I currently work from home in my purpose built studio, delivering music for TV, writing my own music, teaching Piano, guitar and Violin... And learning that sax (Honk)

Will's Reviews

"Will Alleyne doesn’t just perform—he creates a whole atmosphere. The kind where you forget what time it is, lose track of everything except the music. His stage presence is magnetic, and his musicianship? Next level. Pure vibes start to finish." — @jadefromthevalley on TikTok

"Just saw Will Alleyne live and I'm honestly still buzzing. The man plays like he’s summoning the music out of thin air. The vibe was unreal—everyone was vibing, dancing, crying, laughing. You don’t just listen to Will—you feel every second." — @sophie_undrgrnd on Instagram
