Press Release: Derina Harvey Band – April 19

The Derina Harvey Band will perform at Gesa Power House Theatre on Friday, April 19 at 7:00 p.m.

Fearless front-woman Derina Harvey leads this Celtic rock group, who are recent winners of the People’s Choice Award at the 2018 Edmonton Music Awards. The group offers a fresh take on traditional folk songs as well as an increasing amount of original material. The band has a rocky, rhythmic undertow; layered with guitars, fiddle, and topped by Derina’s powerful vocals. Derina’s vibrant personality takes center stage with humor and storytelling, and the band has built their reputation through high-energy live shows.

The band has two full length recordings to their credit. Their self-titled debut album (2013) garnered radio airplay across Canada, and their second album “Rove and Go” (2016) tracked at #65 on CKUA’s top-played albums for 2016. The band is currently writing original material for a full-length album. Their latest single “The Fallen Man’s Daughter” was released in October.

The Derina Harvey Band is: Scott Greene, Ed Smith, Derina Harvey, Steve Pinsent, and Jess Blenis.

About the Gesa Power House Theatre

The historic Gesa Power House Theatre is a 300-seat performing arts venue, located in downtown Walla Walla. The 120-year-old building was once the Walla Walla Gas Plant, built to produce coal gas used to light the streets, businesses, and homes of Walla Walla. In 2011 the Gesa Power House Theatre building was transformed into a state-of-the-art playhouse for live performance. The interior design of the theatre was inspired by Shakespeare’s own intimate Blackfriars Theatre in London, England.

The Gesa Power House Theatre is on the Washington State Building Preservation Commission list of State historic buildings and on the National Register of Historic Places. The venue also hosts a variety of other cultural events, musical concerts, and private events (including weddings).
