Folk & Pop with Mahoney Harris
Join us for an hour of folk and pop with Waiheke-based artist Mahoney Harris. Her voice has been described as 'honest, charming and beguiling' and her tunes are intimate, wistful but hopeful.
In 2009, with the help of Tom Healy (Paquin, Tiny Ruins) Mahoney recorded her debut e.p, But They Do, receiving warm praise from fans and critics. Reaching her PledgeMe crowd-funding goal, Mahoney recorded and released the album We Didn’t Feel Alone in 2014 with producer, Tom Healy, Wayne Bell and a handful of other talented NZ musicians.
Mahoney has since released the sparse acoustic ballad ‘The Shifting of the Light’ and the countrified ‘Band in Town’, with a new single out entitled ‘I Don’t Have To Move From Here’.
“The real deal you might say”
Graham Reid, Elsewhere
“…given her warm voice, her natural lyricism, her fine love of words, and her fresh guitar, she is someone to watch in the panoply of kiwi music.”

“The main surprise here is Harris’ voice, which lifts the music to another level, recalling country-pop singer/songwriters of the late 1960s and early 1970s”.
