In a world where classical music isn’t cool, emerging pop violin virtuoso CAITLIN MOE redefines cool.
This twenty-year old blond bombshell, with heels and a short skirt as her weapons and a violin as an accomplice, is creating her own unique path through contemporary music. Captivating international audiences with her eclectic combination of influences from different genres and time periods, she doesn’t enliven the scene, she reinvents it.
Caitlin Moe first discovered the violin when she was four, but it wasn’t until high school that it became her destiny when she realized music could touch people in many ways. It was this certainty that drove her to push beyond being categorized as just another classical musician. With technique “not good enough to be accepted by the classical kids” and improvisation “not cool enough for the jazz cats,” she was trapped in a musical purgatory that drove her to the pursuit of creating her own niche and ultimately fusing the two worlds together.
Always on the move, Caitlin briefly attended George Washington University before following her wanderlust to Warsaw, Poland; where she wrote her first song, "Siren Song," an eclectic 7-part violin instrumental piece. Before long, she was in Mumbai, India, for her first International tour opening the VH1 sessions concert in dramatic style. It was here she met Rob Hoffman and Heather Holley of Elicit Music, songwriters/producers/managers who not only wrote the song that got Christina Aguilera signed, but also wrote and produced on every subsequent Aguilera release.
Caitlin Moe brazenly achieves her goal of making classical music sexy in her debut album where her background lends another dimension to her songwriting. She performs vivid imaginative compositions live by layering each violin and vocal part with a loop station and her thought provoking lyrics go beyond her years as they soulfully explore the mysteries of love, soul-mates and reincarnation.
With influences like Ravel, Gershwin, Lucia Micarelli, Nickel Creek, Imogen Heap, Dave Matthews Band, Fiona Apple, Rihanna, it’s understandable why her sound is described as “sultry melodramatic classical pop with violin.”
Like Caitlin Moe herself ... it’s original, enigmatic, sexy and ultimately and unexpectedly cool.
