Date Added For YouTube Sensations The Harp Twins At Boston Court - Sept 14

Boston Court Performing Arts Center presents The Harp Twins. Due to popular demand, a second performance has been added on September 14 at 8:00pm. As the world's only identical twin professional harpists, the vivacious Camille and Kennerly are classically trained and share a passion for arranging and performing rock, metal, and soundtrack music, all on their exceptionally elegant instruments.

Camille and Kennerly's videos on YouTube have garnered over 80 million views. Their music have been featured in worldwide mainstream media such as CBS News, National Geographic, The Huffington Post, Metal Hammer Magazine, ABC News, Conan O'Brien's TeamCoco, Rolling Stone ES, The Soup, VSAUCE, BuzzFeed, Metal Underground, LA Weekly, Guitar World, Revolver, and The Telegraph UK. The Harp Twins are so unique that they were highlighted in Ripley's Believe It or Not "Reality Shock" coffee table book, which heralded their one-of-a-kind duo.

The Harp Twins have also shown themselves to be formidable composers with their Nordic-inspired original songs - harkening to their Scandinavian heritage. Camille and Kennerly perform on statuesque Acoustic and Electro-Acoustic Concert Grand Harps as well as Electric Harps. Camille and Kennerly have created a unique niche for themselves: playing rock and metal music using only their two harps. With no backtracks, no studio, no production crew and no record label, the Harp Twins are the archetype of true trail-blazing independent artists.

In addition to their Nordic-inspired original songs, Camille and Kennerly are recognized for their remarkable duet harp arrangements of some of rock and metal's most iconic hits by the likes of Guns N' Roses, Metallica, Iron Maiden, Led Zeppelin, Ozzy Osbourne, Megadeth, Aerosmith, AC/DC, Black Sabbath, The Rolling Stones, Blue Oyster Cult, Scorpions, Eagles, Bon Jovi, Pink Floyd, U2, Journey, Evanescence, Billy Idol, Deep Purple, and many more. Showing the breadth of their arranging talents, the twins also arrange and perform TV and Movie Soundtrack, Anime, and Video Game hits. Some fan favorites include their renditions of music from Game of Thrones, The Walking Dead, Pirates of the Caribbean, The Elder Scrolls, Final Fantasy, Star Trek, Star Wars, Vikings, Doctor Who, Zelda, Mario, Silent Hill, Harry Potter, and The Lord of the Rings.

Camille and Kennerly have released 5 self-produced albums: Harp Attack, Harp Attack 2, Harp Fantasy, Harp Fantasty 2, and Winter Lights.
