Harper & the Midwest Kind w/ special guest the Mark May Band Wednesday, March 26 at 8:00pm @ The Canal House “Ohio’s Crossroads to the Blues” 108 South Main St. Tuscarawas, OH 44682 (740) 922-1255 The Canal House is located in the Southeastern part of Ohio. Just a few miles off of interstate 77 and located on State route 36 and 416 An amalgamation of blues, rock, funk, soul and world music, Australian singer/ songwriter Peter D. Harper creates a heady mix of roots music through his creative use of the harmonica, and the haunting drone of the didgeridoo. By combining traditional and modern influences, borowing from Western and Aboriginal music, Harper has created a highly original take on the roots genre which many have labeled World Blues. His innovative use of electronic enhancement and feedback, breaks the traditional boundaries of the harmonica, giving his music its distinctive harmonics and effects. The powerful guitar sounds and the unique drone of the didgeridoo create raw yet eerie sonic textures, some how sounding primal and contemporary at the same time. No Depression Magazine,s Rod Ames, adds that Harper has written and arranged some of the most soulful blues rock filled music Ive heard in quite sometime.
