They will make their debut at the 10th Annual Cape Breton International Drum Festival in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia on May 22nd. Guitarist Bradley Bishop and bassist Jean-Philippe Bourgeois round out the band, the search for a vocalist is currently underway:
“It came together over New Year’s. We were in Montréal and feeling the high of a new city, a new decade,” said guitarist Cristina. “We’ve always had a lot of chemistry as musicians and friends, and working together made so much sense.”Having spent many hours jamming during downtime from other projects over the last few years, the transition to songwriting was natural.
“I really feel like there’s a great level of sincerity and heart happening here,” said Bradley. “Something I’ve been longing to hear in music for some time.”Harbinger will make its first official appearance at the Cape Breton International Drum Festival in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia on May 22, 2010. Dubbed “Year of the Legends: Celebrating 10 Years”, Harbinger will share the stage at Savoy Theatre with drummers Roxy Petrucci (VIXEN), Carmine Appice (VANILLA FUDGE, BLUE MURDER) and Chad Wackerman (FRANK ZAPPA) to name a few.
“It’s a huge honour for me to represent Pearl and to play alongside so many legendary players who’ve influenced me,” said drummer Elie. “It’s a really cool first gig for the band and I’m really looking forward to showcasing our songs.”Auditions are currently underway for vocalists.
