    Artist description
    Northern California's own King Harvest has been gracing stages all over the Golden State! A composite from a few of the hardest working acts touring in the east and west right now have formed to give us some of the most potent "California Soul" around. Formerly known as "Mobius" this five piece has been coming up strong and is captivating hearts with the best of them! Accomplishments include sharing the stage with acts such as Mother Hips, Box Set, Blew Willie, Zen Tricksters and even Wilco. In addition they are continually gaining college radio airplay and are routinely within the top ten most requested groups. King Harvest has one mini e.p. to their credit and is currently getting ready for a second full length CD release that will be available at the beginning of this summer. This will be the band's second release available on BlackLightGarden Records, and it is expected to be the most exciting to date. Rich harmonies, classic tones, masterful songwriting, and a passion for the craft give this group the fevered uniqueness that it takes to break through and continue to evolve with their ever growing fan base. So be sure to see this exciting band as they get ready to perform on some of the most coveted stages of the summer!

    Artist History
    King Harvest formed within the club circuits of San Francisco and Berkeley Ca. Each one making there own seperate way to the Pacific Coast, the five converged on The Bay Area independently. "It's about being dedicated to music as a way of life" says singer/ guitarist Lee Simpson. "Each of us made our own way here but it is the common thread between us. It's a life that is full of excitement and mystery". With members fom all over the United States, the members of this band have had the opportunity to share stages with bands such as Merle Saunders, Mother Hips, Wilco, The Band, Hot Tuna, Blues Traveler, New Aquarium Rescue Unit and many others. The foundation of King Harvest is the deep roots of American Rock and Roll. The love of the craft and the mystery of songwriting. Mix this all up with the inspiration that only mileage on the American highways can bring and you have one extraordinary band.
