WITH THE UNUSUAL SUSPECTS, SEAN HARKNESS'S electric guitar becomes the voice. The conversation between him and his fellow bandmates is the dance. Inspired by jam bands, John Scofield, and Jeff Beck, the format is Harkness in front of a strong and colorful rhythm section comprised of keyboards, upright bass, and drums.
With new arrangements at every show, you'll hear songs by The Beatles, The Cars, The Carpenters, Todd Rundgren, Supertramp, Gary Wright, Grateful Dead, Joe Jackson, The Eagles, The Doors, Little River Band, The Zombies, The Who, and more.
“One of the things that sets me apart from other guitarists in NYC is that I work with so many different people. From theater stars to blues artists, movie stars to folk singers, Broadway divas to jazz snobs and everything else on the spectrum.”
“If I have a ‘niche,’ it’s the guy who can bring anything to life with heart and authenticity. And mostly with vocalists. Something about the way I interact with vocalists makes me a trusted name when they want to bring it to life and that everyone I work with is every bit as much an Influence on my musical voice as George Benson, Duane Allman, or Eddie Van Halen.”
Harkness adds that the “My repertoire is a choice of songs from my childhood. They’re not necessarily the proscribed ‘covers’ one would expect from a tribute or cover band; rather these are the songs that came on the school bus AM radio. Songs that moved me to learn music. I’m just interpreting them through the lens of 40+ years’ experience as a pro guitarist,” he says.
Harkness’ album Aloft is available on Windham Hill.
