What They Say…

“The most versatile harp player I’ve ever worked with. Blues, Jazz. Country, he does it all”
David Clayton-Thomas
“I’ve only recently discovered Roly and his fantastic playing. I needed a harp session in a hurry here in the UK, and although half a world away, Roly did the most amazing e-session for me in superquick time, recorded a superb performance, and I now have his number on speed-dial ! He was extremely easy to communicate with, and very easy to work with regarding arrangement directions. I can’t recommend him highly enough and I know we’ll work together again soon.”
Matthew Cang – Guitarist, Writer, Producer Bath, United Kingdom
