The Harp Twins—featuring identical twin sisters Camille and Kennerly–are returning to the North Country bringing dynamic acoustic and electric rock harps. This show, hosted by the Great North Woods Committee for the Arts, will be inside the majestic Rialto Theater in downtown Lancaster on Wednesday, Oct. 24, at 7 p.m. This duo has been one of the top shows presented in the region by the GNWCA.
“We are delighted to have these wonderful sisters return to the Great North Woods,” said GNWCA President Charlie Jordan. The Harp Twins won over a local following two years ago when sisters Camille and Kennerly Kitt brought their remarkable harp stylings to town under the auspices of the GNWCA. This concert is co-sponsored by LaPerle’s IGA.
Identical twins Camille and Kennerly perform internationally and have a large fan-base. As actors, The Kitt twins have appeared in three feature films—two of which also feature the twins performing on their harps. Camille and Kennerly are easily the most followed and recognizable harpists in the world. They have a passion and flair for arranging and performing contemporary music for harp duet. They were trained classically but their true musical love and passion is playing rock, metal, alternative and crossover genres. The Harp Twins perform on identical statuesque acoustic concert grand harps as well as identical modern ebony electric harps. Most recently, Camille and Kennerly teamed up with Harpsicle/Rees Harps to show what can be done with smaller, affordable harps. The twins’ new metallic blue harps bring a new element to the breadth of their duet harp revolution. Camille and Kennerly have created a unique niche for themselves: they play rock and metal music using only their two harps. Unlike other artiss who cover contemporary music, the twins use no back track, studio, or production people. They are the archetype of true independent artists. Camille and Kennerly are recognized for their remarkable duet harp arrangements of songs by artists such as Guns N’ Roses, Iron Maiden, Led Zeppelin, Metallica, Ozzy Osbourne, Megadeth, Aerosmith, AC/DC, The Rolling Stones, Blue Oyster Cult, Scorpions, Eagles, The Police, Bon Jovi, Pink Floyd, U2, Journey, Evanescence, The Cranberries, Coldplay, The Beatles, Johnny Cash, Deep Purple, and many more. The twins also arrange and perform a jukebox of TV and movie soundtrack, and video game hits.
The Kitt twins made their Hollywood film debut as the Merry Christian Twins in the feature film “Politics of Love” as actors, soundtrack writers, and soundtrack performers (harp and vocal). Camille and Kennerly have been cast as principal roles in several commercials. They are both Third Degree Black Belts in Taw Kwon Do and are former Tae Kwon Do instructors. The twins are also “Distinguished Experts” in rifle marksmanship and are trained in horseback riding. They were competitive swimmers for many years as children. Camille and Kennerly graduated “Summa Cum Laude” (with highest honors) from the prestigious Conservatory of Music at Wheaton College, both with a Bachelor of Music degree in Harp Performance.
“You’ll definitely want to come to hear and meet these talented young musicians during their Colebrook appearance,” Jordan said. “Don’t wait to get your tickets–they are going fast and we expect to have a big turnout, from what we’re seeing in advance ticket sales.”
Tickets are $15 and available at the Rialto Theatre, 80 Main St., Lancaster, Fiddleheads, 110 Main St., Colebrook, online at www.gnwca.org or at the door.
