About our featured Artist:
Rich Harney has been illuminating
the Austin jazz scene as one of its brightest stars for the last decade. His
remarkable talents as pianist, composer, and vocalist have gained him acclaim
from the Austin American-Statesman as “one of Austin’s most valuable musical
resources.” The Austin Jazz Players and Critics Poll honored him in 1993 as
Composer of the Year, Best Songwriter, and Best Male Jazz Vocalist. He also
received second place honors in the Austin Music Umbrella’s 1992 Composer
Competition. In a 1990 competition adjudicated by Branford Marsalis, MUSICIAN
magazine named Harney’s sextet as one of the twelve Best Unsigned Bands
nationwide.
Harney has performed extensively
as band leader and ensemble pianist with Gene Ramey, Tony Campise, Carmen Bradford
(Count Basie Orchestra), Martin Banks (Duke Ellington Orchestra), Clifford
Scott and Ted Piltzecker (Director, Aspen Music Festival’s Jazz Program). In
addition to playing jazz festivals and local venues, he and singer Beth Ullman
co-produced the popular concert series “Jazz at St. David’s” and the highly
acclaimed theatrical concert “Dyin’ to Swing.
