September 3, 2025Best Experience!
I am so grateful for Karolyn. The harp music created the perfect ambiance for my baby shower. Everyone kept making comments about how good she was, and she even dressed up for the tea party theme, which was such a lovely surprise. She was also really easy to work with and was punctual. I would 1000% recommend her for anyone looking for a professional harpist.

What to expect
My repertoire consists of pop, jazz, classical and show/movie music. I love to play indoors or out as long as weather permits. My harp can be amplified to provide sound for larger audiences. I love to learn new music.
About
Born in Detroit and raised on the city’s rich musical heartbeat, Karolyn Witcher found her calling at sixteen when the harp first landed in her hands. She refined her craft at Oberlin Conservatory, then stepped boldly into jazz, weaving shimmering harp lines through the genre’s rhythmic pulse.
Karolyn’s career has carried her from community orchestras to cozy restaurants, from neighborhood stages to performing alongside Aretha Franklin herself. Now living in Las Vegas, she continues to shape moments with music — offering soulful, intimate harp performances for weddings, private gatherings, and the city’s favorite coffee shops.
She plays a Lyon & Healy Style 30 Concert Grand Harp and also offers the versatility of a Lyon & Healy Ogden lever harp—perfect for small, intimate settings—as well as a fully electric Camac DHC that can be played with backing tracks.
