About the Artist

You’ve never heard violin like this! The world’s premier visionary violinist, Dixon’s life mission is to inspire people – and he has done so across North America, including giving three TED talks/performances, over ten years at Burning Man, plus radio, TV, and film appearances. A former technology leader and symphony violinist, Dixon walked away from a distinguished career to follow his dream full-time, and invented a whole new music genre. Dixon now improvises on a 5- string electric violin with a looping system he developed to create an all-live one-man symphony, guided by his remarkable personal story of life transformation. Dixon’s passionate energy will enchant, mesmerize, and inspire you!

Dixon is the only one in the world doing what he does. Very few violinists are both classically-trained (symphony-level) and able to improvise. To also have a command of such a wide range of pedal effects is nearly unheard of. But what sets Dixon apart is his empathy and presence – always conscious of the energy in the room, baring his soul through his instrument, guiding and inspiring the listeners through his words and bittersweet, beautiful sounds.
