Deborah Henson-Conant is known as the world’s master of the electric body harp - in fact, the instrument is now named after her: The DHC Harp.
A Grammy-Nominated artist for her work creating original musical stories with full symphony orchestra - DHC brings her remarkable instrument, her voice, her stories and her looper pedal to the Arlington Showplace stage for an intimate show that will powerfully remind you why it’s wonderful to be alive.
This is Deborah Henson Conant’s first live performance since the pandemic began.

Forget everything you think you know about harp music. This is a stripped-down, strapped-on, plugged-in harp in the hands of the woman who invented it. You’re inside the mind of a revolutionary instrumentalist and the stories of how that revolution happened - and keeps happening - in a mind without bounds! 

And the music? Fingers on strings in ways you can’t imagine, a voice that transforms from lilt to growl, the humor of a life lived large and imperfectly, stories of innocence and grit - and styles inspired by Blues, Flamenco, Folk, Rock, Classical, Celtic - the style of woman who IS her own style of authentic human expression. If you want inspiration to recommit to your own path, this is the show to see.
