Harry T Pope And His Band

Having written songs from a young age, Harry grew up experimenting with various instruments, leading to his multi-instrumentalist approach when arranging and recording. He co-produces his material with best friend, Alex Baker, with the pair recording most of the instruments themselves.

This performance is somewhat of a homecoming for Harry and his 7-piece band. Most of the group met at King's College London down the road, forming the band Fleet Street Beats and cutting their teeth in the nearby student bars and functions. Having written a number of his releases just ten minutes down Kingsway, Harry and the band will feel at home while bringing the tunes to life in such a familiar venue.

Harry’s live performances showcase an energetic exploration of styles and genres, while his three-piece horn section provides a jazz grounding. This sound is captured in his independently released debut single, ‘Stay Away’ and subsequent debut EP, ‘A Different Kind’.

He has performed at PizzaExpress Live venues across London and, last year, supported renowned soul legend Vanessa Haynes at the Palace Theatre as part of the Watford Jazz Festival. Having recently returned from his sold-out tour of Japan, Harry is working towards the release of his debut album later this year.
