Jason Harrod is an award-winning singer-songwriter known for generous melodies and poetic, image-rich lyrics. His songs are cinematic travelogues of belonging and alienation, filled with quirky narrative and emotional detail. Jason has been writing, recording, and performing for over 20 years — firstly as one half of the duo Harrod and Funck, then later on his own.
In 2000, Jason was a finalist in MerleFest’s Chris Austin Songwriting competition. The following year, he won first place in the North Carolina Songwriters Co-Op contest. In 2009. Jason was selected as a spotlight performer at the annual Healdsburg Guitar festival, sponsored by Acoustic Guitar Magazine, and in 2012 he received a Fulbright grant to teach songwriting to students in Thessaloniki, Greece.
Drawing from a wide variety of influences, Jason is hard to pin down stylistically. One critic from the Folk and Music Exchange put it this way, “Jason Harrod embodies a blend of blues and folk wrought with an extremely strong country spine. He possesses a strong voice and confident almost 50s-ish presence and sound, writing catchy melodies with a great band.”
Jason recently returned to his native Durham, NC after many years in New York. He tours frequently throughout the US.
Charlie and Sherry Springer have been making music together for 50 years. Having started out as a duo, they both spent time in the Detroit area working in many musical configurations. They play an eclectic mixture of Folk, Rock, Blues and Country covers and originals. Their voices blend effortlessly with lush harmonies and precise phrasing. Both took time to pursue careers outside of music, but have returned to the stage recently to resume their love of performing music.
Charlie started playing guitar at age 14. Shortly after, he joined a band that was in need of a bass player, and he spent his high school and early college years playing bass in several bands. Each band came to depend on his voice to provide lead vocals.
Sherry discovered her voice and love of music between high school and college, joining a band as lead singer playing for weddings and parties. From there she joined a successful top forty dance band as lead singer and front person.
With years of experience in local venues, they want to continue their musical journey in the most rewarding of settings…in front of a live audience. And with the addition of the latest member of the band, their grandson Nick Misiak playing bass.
