Lucia Micarelli is an American violinist, singer and actress best known for her collaborations with Josh Groban, Chris Botti, Jethro Tull, and her role as Annie Talarico in Treme.

Micarelli was the concertmaster with the Trans-Siberian Orchestra (TSO) on their Christmas Season Tour in 2003.

After her tour with TSO, she joined Josh Groban on his Closer Tour as a guest soloist and concertmaster.

In 2004, Micarelli released her first album Music From A Farther Room, executive-produced by Groban.

It is a blend of classical pieces and familiar pop songs, including Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody", David Bowie's "Lady Grinning Soul" and David Foster's "To Love You More".

In May 2005, she opened for West End singer Michael Ball.

In October and November 2005 and most of 2006, Micarelli toured the United States with Jethro Tull.

Micarelli appeared as a featured soloist with Ian Anderson (of Jethro Tull) in Vienna in 2006 with the Vienna Radio Orchestra.

In 2007, she toured with Groban again on the Awake Tour to promote his album Awake, and completed her second album, titled Interlude.

In 2008, Micarelli toured with trumpeter Chris Botti.

While on tour with Botti in July 2009, she injured her left hand badly enough to affect her ability to play.

Her rehabilitation was successful, and she was soon playing again, as the numbness in three of her fingers slowly subsided.

Micarelli also had a role in an episode of WGN series Manhattan in 2014.

She also toured with Botti in 2015-2016.

She appeared on a PBS special on June 3, 2017, and appeared at the Vancouver Island Musicfest July 14–15, 2017.
