An Evening with folk music legends KIM & REGGIE HARRIS and JAMES LEE STANLEY

" Kim and Reggie Harris inspire a sense of joy and exhilaration that lifts the soul.. and makes you come alive!" -Philadelphia Daily News
Consummate musicians and storytellers, Kim & Reggie Harris combine traditional African-American spirituals and freedom songs with original folk.
Born and raised in Philadelphia, Kim and Reggie's early exposure to the diversity of musical styles and genres was nurtured in the schools and churches of their
youth, from gospel and classical, to jazz and pop.
As a result of their CDs "Steal Away" and "Get On Board" and materials developed in their work with the Kennedy Center, Kim and Reggie have earned wide acclaim
for their contributions to the resources and knowledge based on the Underground Railroad and the modern civil rights movement.
Their 30 year career of road and stage experience including appearances and interactions with performers such as Pete Seeger, Ysaye Barnwell, Jay Leno, Tom Paxton, Bernice Johnson Reagon, Harry Belafonte and many others, has led them to produce music that both entertains and inspires.

James Lee Stanley has released 23 solo CD's, the most recent being The Apocaloptimist (2015); as well CD collaborations with a range of artists from Tom Paxton, Pamala Stanley and Michael Smith to John Batdorf and Cliff Eberhardt.

He wrote the Top Five hit Coming Out of Hiding, and other hits such as I Don't Want To Talk About It; Plenty of Reason; All I Ever Wanted and Make It Tonight; scored the Emmy Award Winning CATHY Specials for CBS-TV, the Cable Ace Award Winning Tom Parks HBO Special, and the Award Winning Tom Parks Diabetes Documentary. He has produced CD's for Mike Pinder (of the Moody Blues) Nicolette Larson, Peter Tork, and many others.

James Lee has shared the stage with everyone from Bonnie Raitt to Robin Williams, Dionne Warwick to Steven Wright, Art Garfunkel to Robin Trower; sometimes spending as much as 300 days a year on the road.

He also spent five and a half years on the TV Show, Star Trek Deep Space Nine, as various aliens including the singing Klingon!
