Lindsey Stirling is one of the biggest artist development breakthrough stories in recent years. A classically trained violinist from Gilbert, AZ, Lindsey has entered a futurist world of electronic big beats and animation, leaping through the music industry with over 800 million views on her YouTube channel, Billboard chart-topping hits and sold-out tours worldwide. Lindsey's self-titled debut album featured twelve original tracks, including the viral smash "Crystallize," which has racked up over 113 million YouTube views. The album earned her a 2014 Billboard Music Award nomination for "Top Dance/Electronic Album," has sold over 430,000 copies in the U.S. without the backing of a major label and has gone platinum in Germany and gold in Poland and Switzerland. The album reached #1 on Billboard's Dance/Eletrconic Chart and Classical Album Chart, and peaked at #23 on the Billboard Top 200. Lindsey's sophomore album Shatter Me debuted at #2 on Billboard's Top 200 album chart and has sold over 225,000 copies. The album features 12 new songs written by Lindsey, and includes a collaboration with Halestorm lead singer Lzzy Hale on her smash single "Shatter Me," which has nearly 24 million views on YouTube. Lindsey has created a new music world where the romance of Celtic folk music and modern classical meet the infectious energy of dance and electronica. On stage, Lindsey moves with the grace of a ballerina, but works the crowd into a frenzy, "dropping the beat" like a rave fairy. She is the model of a modern independent recording artist, with a symbolic relationship with her fans. A motivational speaker in her spare time, Lindsey uses her own story to show teenagers that you've got to have confidence in the very thing that makes you unique, then wait for the world to catch up.
