Jose Marquez

One of the most unforgettable experience Jose Marquez had  in music business, was working with the incredible Scarlet Rivera in different projects.

Grammy nominated American musician Scarlet Rivera burned a hole in the fabric of rock history as a pioneer of electric violin. From a classical background she bent the accepted norms by experimenting with all genres of music from Rock fusion and Jazz to Latin polyrhythms. She was a revolutionary from the start.

As the first female member of Dylan’s band Scarlet was featured on four additional multi-platinum albums. She is known for her contributions to countless recordings and performances with the most influential artists of our time. Her abilities are wide ranging and have enjoyed the spotlight in music’s most hallowed Carnegie Hall, with The Duke Ellington Orchestra as well as The Kennedy Center and the Carnival of Venice, Italy. Her current Grammy nominated vocal debut, ‘All of Me’, has been spotlighted with stellar reviews around the world. She was a guest performer at JONI 75 star studded birthday celebration performing with Rufus Wainwright and Glen Hansard, and Brandi Carlile performing ‘Blue’ at Disney Hall.

Bob Dylan was the first to discover and acknowledge Scarlet, inviting her as an integral part of the legendary album ‘Desire’ and Rolling Thunder Revue tour. Dylan recognized the genius of Scarlet’s vision as a violinist who played much like a lead guitarist. Scarlet’s dynamic presence led the way to the inclusion of other string players in Rock music. ‘Desire’ was chosen by Time Magazine as one of the top five albums of Dylan’s career and was Scarlet’s debut on the world stage.

Scarlet continues her journey of expression and creativity having performed with such treasured legends as Brandi Carlile, Emylou Harris, Indigo Girls, Tracy Chapman, John Mayall, Keb Mo, Robbie Krieger, and Albert Lee. She has done extensive European tours since 2017.
