This is what our UK tour agent Graham Pope wrote about us:

'These guys are wonderful characters with bundles of energy all keen for you to share in their enjoyment – Vincent, a brilliant player of both box and bodhran, introduces each song with a quirky story, Nienke, the radiant redhead on guitar and 'spoons', lights up the stage and enchants us with her beautiful voice and then we have Sjoerd, a magician on banjo, fighting for our attention with Dominique, the tall clown on double bass – put together you have Harmony Glen performing a great mix of Irish and American folk with a hint of dixieland and jazz – a truly magical experience.

We've been together since the beginning of 2005 and have recorded 3 CD's since then which were all received very well internationally. We regularly tour around Europe, our music has been described by various reviewers as:

"Irish Folk not for the faint of heart" ( Brighton Fringe Festival), "Irish Folk music with a twist" ( FestivalReviews.com), "Better played and with more feeling than many Irish groups" (Dirty Linen), "The best foreign Irish folk group I've heard in years" (Feakle Festival)

Since October 2009 percussionist Job Verweijen optionally joins us on stage!
