Judy Kang

Judy Kang is an internationally recognized violinist known for her work across classical performance and large-scale global tours. She has performed as a featured violinist with Lady Gaga, bringing the instrument into arena and stadium productions around the world.

Classically trained, Judy has performed as a soloist with major orchestras including the Toronto Symphony Orchestra and the National Arts Centre Orchestra. Her background in traditional performance informs a highly refined technique, which she carries into contemporary and live touring environments.

She adopted the Viper early in her transition into electric performance, integrating it into her stage setup during Lady Gaga’s tours. Its self-supporting design allowed for greater movement and visual integration within a full-scale production environment.

“It was a blast discovering new sounds and techniques. The flexibility of movement made it the right instrument for the show.”

Judy performs on a 5-string Viper, using its extended range and versatility to adapt to both musical and visual demands on stage.

Her work reflects a modern approach to the violin—where classical discipline meets large-scale performance and contemporary production.
