Linzi Stoppard

Linzi Stoppard is an electric violinist who pushes the boundaries of musical convention with her passionate, live sets of rock, chill, dance and contemporary melodies.

Linzi has been playing the violin since she was four and trained at the prestigious Suzuki violin school. Her musical success began in her late teens she was then spotted by two music producers who convinced her to front cult American group 'Lords o Acid', so she moved to Belgium and recorded Tattoo of Pain (vocals/electric violin). This led to a number of major recording contracts, including deals with EMI Europe and Never Records USA.

After the success of the album she was signed to EMI Belgium where she formed Babe Instinct and recorded 'Disco Babes From Outer Space' which was a hit across Europe.

Ever challenging and always inventive, Linzi has transfixed audiences the world over with passionate and mesmerising performances. Linzi is currently in the studio recording her debut solo album on the electric violin and can currently be seen performing globally at exclusive events in London, Paris, New York and the Far East.

Married to Will Stoppard, son of Tom and Miriam, Linzi brings another dimension to an already hugely successful and creative family.

Linzi is supporting A Grand Idea to Make Your Mark. She says: "It is important in whatever you try to achieve to never stop believing in yourself. I've always pushed the boundaries in my music to create something different and unique. Making Your Mark in whatever you decide to do needs all these key elements; an original and inventive idea, a passion for whatever you do and the drive and determination to make your idea happen."
