Happy June Everyone,
The Summer Festival season has arrived here in the USA . My band "Midwest Kind" and I are about to head out on a Four week Tour taking us all over the USA. We will be headlining Pennsylvania's, Jacks Mountain Blues Festival and opening for HEART at the Spyglass Winery this weekend then its onward to Idaho, Washington, Oregon then California, South Dakota, Nebraska, Colorado then back to Michigan before heading to Thunderbay, Ontario, Canada and Beausejour, Manitoba, Canada. We have some great festivals coming up in July: Portland's Waterfront Blues Festival, Oregon, 7 Sisters Festival, California, Sioux Falls jazzfest and The Blue Waters Blues Festival, Nebraska.
Happy to announce that the "No Wukkin" Furries" T Shirt has arrived and are available on www.harper.biz We have small through to 3XL, some sizes sell out more quickly than others but be assured, we can now order in new shirts in a timely manner. We will also have shirts at our shows. Some of you will also notice a bunch of new tunes over the next few months. We plan to road test a lot of new material. Please let me know what you think. My band and I will be recording a new studio CD in December for a February release. Its been a while between CDs but Im really working hard to make this one the best so far.
Hope to see you all out on the road this Summer!
Thanks and Peace,
Harper and Midwest Kind

Harper and Midwest Kind November Blog, 2014
Hi Everyone,
Its starting to get cold here in Michigan and my log fire is getting quite a lot of work. Very sorry to announce that we had to reschedule our Australian tour. The day before we were due to board the plane to Sydney, I was involved in a car accident. I was the passenger in a friend's car, when another car drove right through a stop sign and barreled right into us. I sustained three fractured ribs. Very very sore but not serious. My doctor put me on the "No Fly List" so we were forced to cancel our tour. Thankfully all our Aussie clubs and festivals have graciously agreed to rebook us for the same time next year. So we will get there eventually! Very sorry for the inconvenience to our Australian fans!.
October saw us heading back to the Downhome Blues Festival in Camden, South Carolina. it was fun to run into Chef Jimi and his lovely wife Leslie plus many more familiar faces. We also visited Asheville, North Carolina- Westville Pub which was a lot of fun. Then it was down to Florida for an amazing visit with our special needs kids at the Buckingham Exceptional Student Center in Fort Myers. We've been performing for these kids since 2009 and every show is an absolute blessing. New principal Doctor Ruthie Lohmeyer was absolutely blown away at the way the kids were reacting to the music especially the didgeridoo session at the end of the show. Ive known for many years that music is a very powerful and healing force!. After Fort Myers we headed to the stunning Guanabanas amidst a tropical rain forest then it was Englewoods on Dearborn. We also performed at the Inaugural Camping with The Blues in Brooksville. Got to see Doug Deming and Bryan Lee perform. We had an all star jam at the end with about ten musicians on stage which was just magical! The festival was a lot of fun with good vibes all round. We finished our tour at a new club for us- Two Brothers in Punta Gorda, a very nice outdoor show indeedy!
We hope to catch you all out on the road this fall and winter with dates in Michigan, Illinois, Georgia, South Carolina, Tennessee, Florida, Missouri, Iowa and Nebraska!
Thanks and Peace,
Harper and Midwest Kind
