About
Darling, my name is Eva Hummingbird. I am the 1940s alter ego of producer & DJ Ceskie. I am a violinist and a spy. I stand for freedom, exist in the shadows, and am surviving the tumultuous world of WWII with one thing: my journal. Here is the only true safe space to express my emotions. That is what I share with you, through music. Within it, I also conceal top secret intelligence meant for your ears only… I know you understand this, but I find being a double agent can be incredibly overwhelming. Especially when you are in love with someone you shouldn’t be… Anyways, darling, I will be in touch soon. Love, Eva. Ceskie - pronounced "Chess-kii"- infuses 16 years of classical and contemporary music industry experience - performing, writing, producing and mixing - into her work. In the past two years, she has become highly sought after as a string arranger and violinist, having written, arranged, performed and produced music globally, for major artists and producers. This includes Kehlani, Latin Grammy winner Alex Cuba, Jake Wesley Rodgers, Pa Salieu, Maiah Manser and with major producers whose credits include Beyonce, Drake, Chris Brown, Doja Cat, FKA Twigs, Stormzy, Demi Lovato, Lil Wayne, Victoria Monet, Snoh Aalegra, Little Mix, Mabel & Troye Sivan. She has also played and recorded with artists such as Jacob Collier, Full Crate, Lizzie McAlpine, Patrice Rushen and Thomas Newman. She's written and recorded for film, performed with classical orchestra and pop string sections across Europe and the USA in venues such as the Royal Festival Hall, MIT's Kresge Auditorium, Bridgewater Hall, BSO Symphony Hall and performed solo at a private event for Prince William. She studied violin and composition at conservatory - Chethams School of Music - from age 11. At 13, she was discovered and mentored by Anne Shih (contemporary of Joshua Bell), the last teaching assistant of Josef Gingold. She then graduated Magna Cum Laude from Berklee College of Music in 2020, as a DJ, producer and arranger, with a scholarship-funded B.M. Professional Music degree focused on Music Engineering & Production and Songwriting. Due to Covid, she had a Boston DJ residency cut short, instead returning to the UK after graduation. Although quarantine was spent isolated in the countryside, she established herself as a leading pop string arranger within a year. Her alter ego, Eva Hummingbird - a 1940s spy and violinist - was created to showcase this side of her artistry. Presented as a multi-media story told via Instagram, this led to many established, grammy winning producers seeking to work with her. She is currently based in London, however travels regularly, alongside working virtually with producers across the globe. She recently had two tracks - 'Nobody But You' and '5 In The Morning' premiered on the BBC Introducing radio show, ushering in a new chapter of Ceskie's career as a producer and DJ. The song 'Text Me When You Get Home', written with Full Crate featuring Lola Vialet and UHMEER was recently featured in a short movie for the Chevron Collection, feat. Michael B Jordan.
