Big Lux Blends Classical Violin with Hip Hop and More at the Kate August 16

OLD SAYBROOK, CT - The Katharine Hepburn Cultural Arts Center, “the Kate”, welcomes Westerly, Rhode Island native Big Lux for a matinee performance on Wednesday, August 16, 2023 at 1:00 pm.
Big Lux is a larger-than-life musician changing the way people see the violin, and the world. For this special show at the Kate, he’s focusing on some of his youngest fans in a show just right for kids and families. He’ll share a bit about his violin, and all the amazing music he creates with it. Classically trained as a child, he blends hip hop, bluegrass, jazz, and personal life stories to create an experience for his audience that goes beyond just a show.
As much as he loves performing, Big Lux is also passionate about advocating for human rights. Having immersed himself in South American, Asian and Middle Eastern cultures, his love for people is rivaled only by his desire for us to do better as a whole. Both his music and his speaking events are socially conscious, personal and authentic, with an eye always toward a better tomorrow.
