Blues, Jazz, Rock Violinists?


Hey folks - over the years I have really enjoyed Sugar Cane Harris. Can anyone recommend other "non-classical" violinists? (but not really interested in "country fiddle", either). Am familiar with Jean Luc Ponty, Papa John Creach. Violin as in "It's a Beautiful Day", Dan Hicks, UK would work too. Looking forward to your suggestions.

I like Michael Gray of Pearl Django. If you don't like Grapelli, he might be more to your taste.

I usually like Stuff Smith for jazz.

If you are in a more adventurous mood, check out Min Ben-Ari; also known as the 'hip-hop violinist'
