Sring Quartets, Solo Violin, String Trios, Duos..... Multi-talented violinist Deb Shebish began her musical career as a classical violinist; receiving a Bachelors of Music in Violin Performance from Indiana State University. She broadened her musical horizons by learning different styles such as Celtic, old-time and jazz fiddle. In 2006, she received a masters degree in Scottish Ethnology from the University of Edinburgh, Scotland, focusing her thesis on how traditional fiddle is taught in the Orkney Isles, Scotland. 
 
Deb's string quartet sets the mood for a sophisticated and elegant event.  The full sound of 2 violins, viola and cello creates a beautiful and ambient atmosphere. Perfect for ceremonies, cocktail hours, and background music for dinners and parties. Looking for a smaller group?  Deb also offers trios, duos, and soloists.

Over the past 15 years, Deb has performed in many capacities: in orchestral settings, touring nationwide as part of several musical shows, as a performer/researcher in Scotland, and of course, providing music for weddings, receptions, and other special occasions.  In addition to performing, she also teaches strings for the Visual and Performing Arts Magnet programs within Indianapolis Public Schools and is a private violin instructor with the Metropolitan Youth Orchestra, an affiliate of the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra.

A professional since age 14, Ben has worked under conductors Leonard Bernstein and Leonard Slatkin, shared the stage with Matt Haimovitz, Ray Charles and The Moody Blues, and has played in a punk band, an Austrian opera orchestra, and on the silver screen.
