Launch Concert - 31.01.03 |

What a night! It was very
special for me to have so many friends on stage performing the CD sets
live and uncut at last! There was a brilliant atmosphere, bursting with
energy from both the audience and the musicians themselves. I'm so
grateful to all the friends who came, performers and audience alike,
some of whom came from as far afield as Suffolk, Sussex, Wales and
Germany to be there. I really enjoyed the whole concert and there was an
excellent turn out, despite the heavy snow which had left London
grid-locked! A huge thank you to everyone who struggled through
adversity to be there! A video of the concert, done by Chris Potter, is actually available for all those of you who were snow-bound or otherwise unable to make it. If anyone would like a copy do email info@harrietearis.com |

Hammersmith Irish Centre,
'London's Premiere Centre for Irish Arts', advertised the CD Launch
saying
'To celebrate the release of her new CD the exciting young harp player Harriet Earis gathers together 8 outstanding musicians, playing pipes, whistles, flutes, guitars, bouzouki, bodhrán, fiddles and some Gaelic vocals, for a night of magical music! If you reckon a harpist can't play dance music, don't miss this brilliant gig!' |

Thanks again to everyone
who performed and brought the whole evening to life with their music.
Let's hope there'll be many more nights like this one! For those who missed this gig watch out for the 'Jumping Ahead' tour of the Hebrides in August 2005 and keep an eye on my 'Calendar' page for other forthcoming concerts with the CD line-up. |
