She is doing for the harp what Elvis and Chuck Berry once did for the guitar.”

--Percussive Notes
 

She’s a one-woman, blues-flamenco-Celtic-funk-folk-jazz-playing dynamo. She solos like a rock guitarist. She tells tall tales with the timing of a stand-up comic. She’s an irrepressible, lyrical spirit.


But wait till you see that harp.


Deborah Henson-Conant is a Grammy-nominated artist who sings and plays a 36-string custom-built electric “harness harp” in styles ranging from full-out bluesy to heart-wrenching ballad. She has toured with the Boston Pops, starred in a PBS special, lectured at the Paris Conservatory and played at the Kennedy Center. The Grammy-nominated star has been featured on NBC, CBS, CNN and NPR.


Deborah’s albums range from Latin jazz to Celtic, blues, folk-pop and spoken word. But on stage, she’s electric, bringing vibrant passion to a powerful musical journey, taking audiences along for the ride. See her once and you’ll never view or hear a harp the same way again.
