Kim and Reggie Harris

Kim and Reggie Harris are two vibrant, superbly talented and engaging performers whose captivating stage presence has inspired audiences around the world for over 25 years. They are singers, songwriters, storytellers, educators, historical interpreters and cultural advocates.

They met, by chance, at a summer camp in 1974. While attending Temple University they honed their performance skills in the clubs and coffeehouses around Philadelphia.

In 1980, Kim and Reggie "hit the road" touring universities, art centers, schools and other concert venues. Their strong material (both original and otherwise) and complex harmonies, combined with their stunning voices and informed stage patter, has won them accolades and fans that has them in constant demand. They average over 275 performances each year!

Kim and Reggie have been featured in performance at the Kennedy Center, the Smithsonian Institute, the International Children's Festival in Canada, the Wang Center, the Pike's Peak Center, various festivals in the U.S, Canada and Italy and a host of universities, schools, churches and other performing venues. They are presenters in the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts touring workshop program providing teacher training and arts events that encourage the use of the arts in the classroom. They have opened for and performed with Jay Leno and Pete Seeger and Richie Havens and Tom Paxton and Micheal Keaton and The Indigo Girls and Janis Ian and many others. So now, to crown their exceptional careers, they will be bringing their rousing music to Golden Link's 2009 Turtle Hill Folk Festival.

On the side, Kim has recently earned a Master of Divinity degree from Union Theological Seminary and, when not touring, Reggie coaches girls varsity basketball.
