August 14, 2026Punctual, Professional, and Talented
Kristen was very punctual and was able to work within the crazy Colorado weather we had at our Garden Party event. We did have a covered space to protect her German made harp and she had to move a couple of times due to rain and wind. She provided an array of gorgeous harp tunes to help set the mood of our event. I would highly recommend her for any future events. Wedding, Corporate, private and tenant events. Several of our tenants came back to just get pictures of her and her harp.

Kristen arrived early, brough a gorgeous harp, and all the equipment she would need to amplify sound. Ultimately, we tied her in to our front of House PA.
Kristen has all the chops. From 90s/2000s bangers, to complete pocket improv. Every guest was stunned. Thank you, Kristen, for sharing your gifts and knowledge with us. Can't wait to enjoy the talent He has given you, again!

February 27, 2026A pleasure to work with!
KP is an incredibly talented multi-instrumentalist and an exceptional vocalist. I’ve had the pleasure of performing at many weddings and hundreds of shows with her in a variety of settings, including several years touring nationally together with the folk band The Riverside.
Throughout our time working together, KP has consistently proven to be professional, communicative, and a true team player. She is reliable, easy to work with, and always delivers a memorable performance.
She would be a fantastic addition to any event!

About
Kristen Posey is a Texas Native. In her high school years donors gifted her public school harps in 2015, Kristen's curiosity to learn propelled her to pursue mastering the instrument. After just two and a half years of putting in countless hours of dedicated practice, Posey decided to audition for the University of Texas. Determined, she gave her time between lunch breaks after school to learn the harp and audition pieces. She then was accepted and admitted to the Butler School of Music at UT Austin.
Later She was given the opportunity to travel as a touring musician with the folk band, The Riverside. She then spent 5 years traveling and playing harp, cello, and singing harmonies across the country. After over 600 live events, Kristen now runs a freelance music business to serve her local community.
Additional booking notes
The harp I use is 5' 7" and 64 pounds. Having access to elevators if event is in a multi story building is important for instrument transportation.
If transportation is a barrier, I also travel with a beautiful Celtic lap harp.
I provide microphones and sound equipment if amplification is needed.
