Geoffrey Castle
Acoustic and six string electric violin
Bio:
Like Hendrix on the violin some have said. With more rock guitar influences that violinists, and a “take no prisoners” stage show, Geoffrey Castle is a truly original voice on his instrument. After putting himself through music school playing the streets and subways of New York, Geoffery has been a presence on the New York City and Seattle music scenes for the last ten years. Jeffery has played on-stage violin and percussion in the Broadway and road productions of M. Butterfly and toured with Imago Recording artist Suzanne Rhatigan. Some of the folks he’s played with include Buddy Miles, Jimmy Buffett, The Meters, Bireli Lagrene, Poppa Chubby, Diane Lotny, Loup Garou Zydeco and Heart. He has also sound designed numerous theatrical productions both in New York and in Los Angeles. Geoffrey’s own compositions have been heard on N.P.R.’s All Things Considered and CBS’s 48 Hours.
