King Harvest is an American rock band that first gained popularity in the early 1970s, best known for their hit song "Dancing in the Moonlight," which became a timeless classic. Although the group disbanded in the mid-70s, they experienced a revival of interest in their music in the 2000s, which led to a reunion and the release of new material. The band's most recent releases reflect a tapestry of sounds that blend their classic rock roots with elements of Caribbean rhythms, reflective ballads, and evocative instrumental pieces.

In their latest work, King Harvest showcases a matured artistry that still carries the charm and energy of their early days. "Ron Altbach Plays Rachmaninoff" highlights keyboardist Ron Altbach's classical prowess, a testament to the band's versatility and musical depth. Songs like "Clouded Over August Day" and "A Little Bit Like Magic (Olcott Version)" offer a nostalgic sound that harks back to the band's initial aesthetic, enriched with the wisdom of their years in the industry. "Jumbee" and "Caribbean" highlight an exploration into tropical sounds, while "Our Old Songs" and "Old Friends" present a reflective look at the past, weaving a sense of continuity between the King Harvest of yore and the band that continues to evolve today. With their recent releases, King Harvest invites both long-time fans and new listeners to enjoy a rich musical journey that honors their legacy while continuing to innovate and inspire.
