JAZZ: Deborah Henson-Conant

Nicknamed the “hip-hop harpist”, Deborah Henson-Conant, is one of the USA’s most popular and flamboyuant performers on the electric harp.

She pays a return visit to Caernarfon, where she appeared in the first two Wales International Harp Festivals back in 2006 and  2010 and delighted her audience with her own mix of music which she describes as “cross-genre: jazz-pop-comedy-blues-flamenco-celtic”. Deborah gives a one-person show and her performances often mix music with theatrical and story elements.
