The style and energy of this one woman act captures new
listeners and presents a completely new musical perspective. Modern Harp Rock is
a rocking combination of the electric harp and percussion. Harpist Kristy
performs in an unassuming way, leaping through intricate passages and arpeggios
that no other rock instrumentalist would even attempt. She keeps her single
lines simple and plays each note with that of a classical guitarists stunning
articulation. Determined to make the harp dance, plucking off chords as if the
harp were just a bigger guitar, and other times using the harps range to conjure
a surrounding wash of sound in the background. A self-invented style that works
the room with an electrifying hip harp and syncopated rhythms. Played in a cool,
low-key way- Harpist Kristy Rocks!
