Mia Asano

Mia Asano is a Los Angeles based electric violinist who combines her classical training with her passion for alternative music. With over 5 million followers across social media platforms, Mia gained global success as a viral social media musician during her time at the Berklee College of Music where she double majored in Violin Performance and Professional Music. She used this momentum to begin releasing her own original music and covers, building up to playing 5 tours in one year, the first of which sold out immediately. Her viral videos, the largest achieving over 40 million views, catapulted her into the online spotlight, leading to real life collaborations with renowned artists like Ministry, Dragonforce, and Lindsey Stirling, and culminated in a European Arena tour with 2 Steps From Hell which began at the prestigious Wacken festival in Germany performing for 65,000 people. Recipient of the Trans-Siberian Orchestra's best Violin performance award in 2020, Mia's passion for music shows through in the diverse genres she plays, from rock and metal to electronic and Celtic music she believes wholeheartedly in breaking the traditional boundaries often put on the violin.
