MEET THE FOUNDER & CEO

Tracy Silverman Founder of The Strum Bowing Groove Academy

Acclaimed electric violinist Tracy Silverman is on a mission to help string players master non-classical styles — by mastering groove.

Hailed by BBC Radio as “the greatest living exponent of the electric violin,” Tracy is a world-renowned violinist and composer known for developing the six-string electric violin and redefining what’s possible on string instruments.

His appearances on NPR’s Tiny Desk Concert and at Carnegie Hall have made him a respected voice in the global string community.

As a leading innovator in contemporary music, Tracy has collaborated with major orchestras and artists including John Adams, Gustavo Dudamel, and many others — consistently pushing the boundaries between classical and modern styles.

He is also the author of The Strum Bowing Method: How to Groove on Strings, a simple, step-by-step rhythmic framework that has helped thousands of string players:

Unlock authentic groove

Play confidently across styles

Reconnect with musical freedom

Teach rhythm more effectively

Today, his Strum Bowing system is used by players and educators around the world as a practical way to bridge classical training with real-world groove.

Who This Workshop Is For

If you want groove to feel natural not like something you have to force you’re in the right place.

  • You play a string instrument (violin, viola, cello, or bass) and you want your rhythm to sound more musical and confident

  • You’ve had classical training and feel like groove-based styles (folk, jazz, pop, contemporary, worship, etc.) still feel awkward or “not you”

  • You can play the notes, but the feel doesn’t match what you hear in your head — it comes out stiff, careful, or disconnected

  • You want rhythm to feel embodied, not like you’re stuck counting and overthinking every bar

  • You want to play with others more confidently (bands, jam sessions, ensembles, accompaniment) without rushing, dragging, or losing the pocket

  • You’ve tried tips, workshops, or metronome drills but nothing has made groove stick in a repeatable way

  • You’re an adult player or comeback musician and want a clear method that works without needing hours of extra practice time

If any of that sounds like you, this workshop will give you a clear framework to start grooving fast without changing your gear or starting over.
