About
Harry J Hart is a singer-songwriter for hire in Gold Coast, QLD.
Harry J Hart was a finalist for Gold Coast Musician of the Year in 2021 and at the Queensland Music Awards in 2018, and took out Best Overall Guitarist at the Bluesfest Busking Competition that same year. He's supported Adam Brand, Rick Price, Daniel Champagne and Casey Barnes. A singer, songwriter and guitarist, he's a regular on the Gold Coast live scene and plays everything from small weddings to corporate events of a thousand people. Book him solo, as a duo, or with the band. The set moves between electric and acoustic guitar and pulls from Ed Sheeran, Vance Joy, Thirsty Merc, John Mayer, Jimi Hendrix and The Beatles alongside his own songs. He'll dress to suit, from a suit and bow tie down to jeans and a tee. Battery powered or full Bose PA depending on the event, and he arrives half an hour early to set up. Fully insured.
Watch
The show
Harry J Hart plays for as long or as short as you want, with short breaks built in so the voice holds up across a long night. Watch him and you'll see him swapping between electric and acoustic guitar as the set moves. He'll also dress to your event, whether that's a suit, a collared shirt with a tie or bow tie, or jeans and a tee for something looser. And the line-up is your call: him solo, a duo, or the full band.
On the day
Two different rigs, and which one turns up depends on your event. There's a battery-powered portable setup for places with no power or where a big system would be overkill. And there's a larger professional Bose system for rooms that need real volume. He gets there half an hour before the start time to set up, though if that doesn't suit your run sheet, say so and he'll come earlier.
