As tgm;orb has suggested , the album " The Machine that Cried " by STRING DRIVEN THING features Graham Smith playing some absorbing violin . Although a few of the songs are a touch commercial, the longer tunes in particular are just excellent with amazing GS solos. Well worth exploring, but I don't know much about their other releases .

Well, there you have it . What a compilation !
I thought I'd found a player and a band who didn't appear on the list . The band does, but the player doesn't. It's the very promising OAKSENHAM from Armenia . Koryun Bobikyan is credited with playing violin on their interesting album " Conquest of the Pacific " which is also worth a listen. Dick's list has the drummer identified as the violinist which was why I couldn't find them . A small matter - the band is well worth a listen. |

I remeber reading that they did bring him into record something for Wish You Were Here, but in the end was mixed so low that no one can hear him. |

Systems Theory has violin and/or viola on all our albums.
The original demos set: all violin/viola by Greg Amov. "Soundtracks For Imaginary Movies": Greg Amov -- fuzz viola on "Green Miata Baja Bound", miked acoustic viola on "A Lifeboat, Tallulah And Me". Cyndee Lee Rule -- electric violin on "The Cool Vibe Of Asia C" and "Zero Sum Equation". "Codetalkers": Cyndee Lee Rule -- wah electric violin on "No Deli In Delhi", electric violin on "Berlin Night Express". On the upcoming "overfulnoisecascade": Greg Amov, Cyndee Lee Rule and Rachel Amov all make an appearance. Since we haven't yet fully decided on the track order (gotta reduce 110 mins of completed tunes to < 80) I won't say who plays what and where. |

That's interesting - I gave a couple of listens to this album this month and I can't remember any violin, but only the rich, melancholic overall sound. I guess the music is good that it doesn't leave place for anything else. |

Gazpacho has some amazing violin pieces, the albums "Night" and "Tick Tock" are full of them.
