She is very enjoyable, and a refreshing change of pace from most of the crap they pass as music now days.

She's mediocre on her best day.

She is a wealthy and successful, "average" musician...

The truth... She is an incredibly successful, incredibly wealthy musician who is living the dream...

She decided one day to do what she loved, and she ended up becoming wealthy doing what she loved.

"Mediocre"-?-?

By "musician" standards, she probably would not be first-chair on a major top-shelf orchestra... But they probably envy the money she makes...

I admire the self made social media entrepreneurs. In a time when the American dream is attacked by those sworn to defend it, people who defy the powers that be, and build their dream, are worthy of admiration.

Exactly.  Lindsey puts on a good show, or at least has a team of people that put on a good show and just kinda stick her face on it.  As an actual violinist she's pretty bleh.

There are musicians and there are entertainers. Eric Johnson can play the hell out of his guitar, but on stage, he's pretty boring to watch. Kiss suck as musicians, but they put on one hell of a stage show.

I now just appreciate them both for who / what they are.

I've played violin for over 25 years, and in my younger years some of that was professionally.  I actually knew of Lindsey Sterling long before her current music career.  She's probably the sweetest, nicest, most heartwarming girl ever to pick up a fiddle.  But, within the professional violin community she is in fact considered a mediocre player at best.  Her skills on a violin are quite decent when she's standing still and using proper technique and all that jazz.  But as soon as she starts moving around and doing her little dance thing, he abilities diminish significantly.  Granted the fact she can play AT ALL while dancing like that is somewhat impressive, but it's just novelty.  I've heard her play with and without the dancing and it's pretty painfully obvious to those of us who know a thing or two about fiddle playing.  All her show songs are pre-recorded and she plays along with no pickup feed, they're also heavily auto-tuned and corrected prior.  DRhodes and I have spoken of this before, back when more of her stuff was getting popular.  She's done a great job of crafting an image for herself, and she's got a very solid sound engineering team behind her as well as excellent composers writing her stuff for her, in fact he latest stuff has been the best so far.  That said, I do wish her all the luck in her career.

I'm assuming you're speaking of Hillary Hahn, who I'm actually quite familiar with.  My formal violin training was through the Suzuki Program and that's where Hahn started as well, and has been involved heavily with the program over the years.  I've actually met and performed with her on a couple of occasions.

Emilie Autumn on the other hand.....she is very very skilled and she put in a hell of a lot of work to gain that skill.  But she's insane.   Like, straight up mental issues.  I think the word is she's severely bi-polar, and I know she got kicked out of her college music program because of it.

She's probably a blast to hang out with.  Even if her skills are considered mediocre by other professionals I am impressed that she was able to put together a successful career from it.  A lot of people don't get that far - you can be the best in the world at one thing and still fail.

There are certainly many worse things to listen to on the radio.

btw, there is no need to jump Enigma's shit over his opinion.  He rendered it respectfully and honestly.

That's one of the fascinating things about pop music is that musical skill isn't actually required.  I've heard raw recordings of Brittney Spears, and she's in reality an absolutely horrible horrible singer.  All that's required is an excellent production team, and a good image and stage presence.  The rest is just marketing.

Let me put it this way.  It is LITERALLY impossible to play violin while doing what she does.  It CANNOT sound well because to dance and move and all that while she does it does not allow for the necessary position and technique needed to make playing of the violin sound good.  She does not "play" at her performances, it's pre-recorded and when it was recorded she was applying all the proper techniques necessary to make it sound good, or at least attempting to because honestly her base skill wasn't really that great.  What then happens after that is a sound engineering team goes through the raw recording and fixes all of that.  Then it gets played back while she's on stage and she does her gimmick of dancing about.  What's "out of the box" here is that the addition of the violin in a pop song show is different than the other pre-fabricated pop shows.  I'm not saying the finished product is bad, I'm just saying we need to be honest about what it really is.

The "sisters" in my mission went door to door... We had a handful of lookers. Course, we had a good number who had, er, um, 'great personalities.'

Yeah... We had a lady who was a member, and her husband wasn't. They had us over a lot. He was an old (amateur) Australian race car diver, and grumpy.

They were both very kind and generous.

He *refused* to call us "elder."

First time I met him he said, "I know it's against the rules to go by your first name, but better tell me yours, or I'll make up a nickname, and start to call you that."

He fixed our bikes, bought us food, and treated us well. And he saw how hard we worked at our missions..On my last dinner, he stammered, looked at the ground, and said, "You are a zit-faced teenager, and I will miss you Elder Juni."

I just think it is cool to know that even though now she has rock-star status... She once was once dealing with antagonists, knocking doors, and trying to teach folks...

I am not surprised!! I've had the fortune of being behind the scenes at a music recording studio here in Birmingham.  The amount of retakes, remixes and technical work required to make most of these people sound appealing is nothing short of amazing.  It's obvious that you're right on the money about sound engineering.

She's mediocre on her best day.


So you can outplay/out preform her right?

I'm sure she's just not on your level man.  You're just on a different playing field.




I once beat her out in a music festival in the Concerto division, so...yeah.


And this is why you are so successful and she is not.


Actually I'm pretty successful in the field I chose to go into.  So.....thanks?  I guess?

What's really funny is all of the guys making inappropriate comments would make her feel really uncomfortable.

I enjoy both  Penatonix and Lindsey Sterling but not that video.
It is there latest. This time with Lindsey. I dont know how many songs that she made with them.





It is in French/belgium. It is a Stromae cover of his song Papaoutai. It is about a boy being raised without his father. He watches the other kids with there father and keeps wanting his own father so he can be like him.





Also. Kristen Maldanado is freaken HOT!

I like her music, listen to it quite often during my commute.  No idea as to her skill level, as I know nothing about violins.  I just know I enjoy what she puts together.

This.



Also I have bought her albums.



Also donated to some of her children's charity.

So all she does is dance around and play mediocre violin?
