[POP] As one of Forbes magazine’s “30 Under 30 In Music: The Class of 2015,” (though she’s 31 now) with a few million records sold and some impressive Billboard chart action, Arizona-raised violin prodigy and former America’s Got Talent contestant Lindsey Stirling’s got it going on. Her stirring blend of strings and electronica remains a captivating and unusual one-of-a-kind showcase, but when you add in the fact that she choreographs her own performances—on full display at Artpark’s indoor mainstage theatre this Thursday, August 9—she takes it all over the top. Occasionally, America’s Got Talent actually finds some, and Stirling has continued to release new music on the fringes of the dance arena, collaborating not long ago with DJ/Producer Otto Knows. Her book, The Only Pirate at the Party cracked the NYT Bestseller List top 10, and her show in Lewiston is her last headlining gig before embarking on a string of dates with Evanescence, making the most of her appearance on their latest album, Synthesis.
