Veronique has always loved going electric! From 2010-12 she lived “on the road” touring internationally with singer/harpist
Joanna Newsom as both lead violin & backing vocalist. She is a founding member of CODA, co-writing much of the bands early material.
Her most recent release (with the Noise) is “composed NoiSe” featuring 7 Australian composers commissioned to write for
“improvising string quartet”. Looking forward to performing these soon!

Giorgio Moroder’s Sydney Opera House shows. In 2014 she leads string quartets for Damon Albarn, Missy Higgins and Katie Noonan.
Her film credits include “the black balloon”, “mental”, “the turning”, “around the block”, “the rocket” and “red obsession”.
