Hello my friends and welcome to another Robcast. I have been looking forward to this one for so long because

Karenza peacock is in the back house. Welcome. Thank you. I'm excited to be in the back house.

Karenza peacock is a friend is a glorious luminous human being is

born in England raised in Ipswich a violin player by trade. Yeah. When you're at a party and people say

what do you do for living do you say I play the violin? Yes and everyone gets very excited.

They do. This is a regular occurrence. Yes. In fact sometimes I pretend I do something else.

Just because you know they're going to go crazy. Yes. Well it's such an unusual thing I feel.

Absolutely. People have a lot of questions. Oh they do. Well I have a lot of questions. Oh good.

And for those of you who are big Adele fans you have played on the Adele records and you are

her violin player and you lead her orchestra. Yeah I did her world tour in 2016. 87 cities.

Yeah I did 87 shows. Yeah. In the course of one year. Yes. With Adele. Yes. Oh my word. That was fun.

So we're sitting here in the back house. It's a beautiful summer evening. The doors are open.

The dog is moving in and out and Karenza has her violin with her. So you're going to play

little bits of music and we're going to talk about them. Yeah. If you'd like me to. We're going to go

all over the place. This is so fantastic. Now this is the last Robcast from the back house for a

while because we're leaving this weekend for a month of traveling. Me and Kristen Bell and various
