Deborah Henson-Conant is a trailblazing American harpist, composer, and performer known for redefining the harp’s role in modern music. Often dubbed the “Hip Harpist,” she blends jazz, blues, Celtic, and rock into her electrifying performances, often playing a custom electric harp while singing and storytelling. With a career spanning decades, she’s shattered stereotypes about the instrument, injecting humor, theatricality, and improvisation into her work. Her releases, like *The Celtic Album* and *Altered Ego*, showcase her genre-defying style, while live albums like *Just For You* highlight her magnetic stage presence.
A Grammy-nominated artist, Henson-Conant has collaborated with symphonies, starred in her own PBS specials, and even composed for theater. Her quirky creativity extends to projects like *The Frog Princess*, which pairs her harp with narrative whimsy. Whether jazzing up standards in *Round the Corner* or crafting original alchemy in *Invention & Alchemy*, she’s a true innovator who makes the harp feel thrillingly unpredictable.
