Identical twin harpists Camille and Kennerly Kitt, known as the HARP TWINS, have
achieved extraordinary success by taking Electric Harps and Concert Grand Harps
to unprecedented levels and smashing boundaries between different genres of
music. The twins’ ability to reinvent the harp has given them the opportunity to
represent the United States at four World Harp Festivals, tour worldwide as a
duo, and be featured guests on the 2020 nationwide PBS special, Celtic Heart. 
This is the third time they have played the Houston Arcade Expo and they have
enjoyed every time!
