Description:
The Blue Ridge Music Center presents The Harris Brothers, Kitty Amaral & The Stray Cats on Saturday, October 4th.

The Harris Brothers are what you might call songsters. They can draw from a vast repertoire of American traditional music - "Americana" is often used to describe their style, but the Harris Brothers just call it music. Their sound is heavily influenced by traditional blues and Appalachian mountain music, jazz, country, and rock n' roll. No matter what the Harris Brothers play, be it originals or old favorites, they have a special way of making the music their own; it's stripped down, intense, and real, with no gimmicks.

Reggie and Ryan Harris were born into a musical family in the foothills of western North Carolina and have been playing and singing since they were children. For the last 17 or so odd years they have honed their skills as a duo, performing everywhere from honkytonks to popular festival stages. They most often perform with just an acoustic guitar, a bass, vocals and an old suitcase used for a kickdrum, with Reggie sometimes switching to fiddle, banjo, or electric guitar.

Kitty plays traditional Old Time repertoire. Kitty began her musical journey at the early at of four when she started violin lessons. It was not long after that she discovered Appalachian Old Time and Bluegrass fiddle repertoire and fell in love with these genres and the people who play it.
