Violinist Kerenza Peacock is a strikingly versatile figure whose activities extend from standard classical orchestral and chamber repertory to contemporary music, various strands of pop, musical theater, and even bluegrass. Peacock and three friends formed the Pavao Quartet, which went on to appear widely at top concert halls across the U.K., touring as far afield as Poland, Syria, and China. With the Pavao Quartet, Peacock made her recording debut in 2006 with the album Someone to Watch Over Me. In 2015, she released her debut album, Flight, featuring concertos written for her by contemporary composer Oliver Davis. Peacock has appeared on a large variety of pop albums. She later joined the bluegrass band The Coal Porters, contributing not only as a fiddler but as a songwriter. She recorded several more albums of Davis' music, including Air (2022).
