Although less frequently requested, the following might be considered, also.
- A non-performance personal appearance.
An example would be to hire a celebrity to attend a private or corporate party as simply a (non-performing) guest to mingle with other guests, or to hire the celebrity to do a meet-and-greet at your party.
- A virtual performance.
A virtual performance is a live or recorded show—such as a concert, play, dance, comedy act, or other artistic presentation—that is broadcast or streamed online instead of being performed in front of a physical audience. Artists perform live from a studio, venue, or even their homes and stream the show on platforms like YouTube, Twitch, or Instagram Live. Essentially, a virtual performance brings entertainment to audiences through the internet rather than in-person venues.

aka Vivie-Ann Bakos
A Conscious Force in Global Electronic Music
BLOND:ISH is a Canadian DJ, producer, and label founder celebrated for blending infectious house and techno with a strong commitment to mindfulness, sustainability, and community. Known for her radiant energy behind the decks and her genre-fluid sound, BLOND:ISH has become a leading voice in the modern electronic music movement—both musically and culturally.
Early Life and Musical Roots
Born Vivie-Ann Bakos in Montreal, BLOND:ISH grew up surrounded by diverse musical influences, ranging from rock and reggae to electronic and world music. Her early exposure to different cultures and sounds helped shape an open-minded approach to creativity. Before stepping into the global DJ spotlight, she explored music through various lenses, eventually gravitating toward electronic production and DJing as her primary artistic outlet.
Breakthrough and Rise in the Electronic Scene
BLOND:ISH began gaining international recognition in the early 2010s with releases on respected underground labels such as Kompakt, Crosstown Rebels, and Get Physical. Her productions stood out for their warm grooves, melodic depth, and uplifting energy, earning support from tastemakers across the house and techno spectrum.
As a DJ, her vibrant stage presence and ability to read a crowd quickly made her a favorite at major festivals and clubs worldwide. Performances at events like Coachella, Burning Man, Tomorrowland, and CRSSD helped cement her reputation as a must-see live act.
Musical Style and Artistic Identity
BLOND:ISH’s sound is rooted in house and techno but remains intentionally fluid. Her tracks often feature rolling basslines, hypnotic rhythms, and emotionally resonant melodies designed to create connection and movement on the dance floor. Rather than chasing trends, she focuses on feel-good energy, spiritual undertones, and music that encourages presence and joy.
Her DJ sets are known for being immersive experiences, blending groove-driven selections with moments of introspection and release.
ABRACADABRA and Label Leadership
In 2017, BLOND:ISH founded her own imprint, ABRACADABRA, as a platform for forward-thinking electronic music and positive cultural values. The label supports emerging and established artists while emphasizing collaboration, creativity, and authenticity.
ABRACADABRA has become known not only for quality releases but also for fostering a community-oriented approach to the music industry, aligning closely with BLOND:ISH’s personal mission.
Environmental Advocacy and Conscious Clubbing
Beyond music, BLOND:ISH is widely recognized for her environmental activism within the nightlife and festival world. She co-founded Bye Bye Plastic, an initiative aimed at eliminating single-use plastics from clubs and events. Through education, partnerships, and action-based solutions, the movement has influenced venues and festivals around the world to adopt more sustainable practices.
This commitment to conscious living has become a defining part of her public identity, setting her apart as an artist who uses her platform for meaningful change.
Impact and Ongoing Influence
BLOND:ISH continues to evolve as both an artist and advocate, releasing new music, touring internationally, and pushing conversations around wellness, sustainability, and inclusivity in electronic music. Her ability to unite dance-floor euphoria with purpose-driven values has earned her a loyal global following.
As electronic music continues to expand, BLOND:ISH stands as a symbol of what the future can look like—joyful, connected, and conscious.
