What’s the NoHo Motto? “NoHo is only as great as its people.”

Meet Elliot Orion, a talented violinist and guitarist who will play a mix of classical and jazz for us on Magnolia Blvd. in the NoHo Arts District as part of Al Fresco Fridays on Friday, October 16 from 6:30-9:15PM.

Why did you start playing the violin?

I don’t remember exactly, I was 5 years old, and for some reason I begged my parents to let me play the violin. It was like my soul knew it was what I was destined to do.

Why do you continue to play the violin?

I continue to play because it is my soul’s connection to the rest of the universe. It’s my therapy, my connection to a higher plane, and my catharsis.

What are your favorite songs to play on the violin?

Honestly, I love to play original songs I write myself. I write music I’d enjoy listening to.

Where do you see yourself in five years?

Performing around the country and writing music for myself and others.
