BERLIN, N.H. — Identical twin professional harpists Camille and Kennerly Kitt will perform a concert of dynamic acoustic and electric rock music at 7 p.m. Saturday, May 14, at St. Kieran Community Center for the Arts.

The performance will be held in the main hall.

The twins have created a unique niche for themselves: They play rock and metal using only their harps. Unlike many other artists who cover contemporary music, the twins use no backing tracks or studio production. 

They are recognized for their remarkable duet harp arrangements of songs by artists such as Guns N’ Roses, Iron Maiden, Led Zeppelin, Metallica, Ozzy Osbourne, Aerosmith, Megadeth, AC/DC, The Rolling Stones, Blue Oyster Cult, Scorpions, Eagles, The Police, Bon Jovi, Pink Floyd, U2, Journey, Evancescence, The Cranberries, Coldplay, The Beatles, Johnny Cash and Deep Purple. They also arrange and perform TV and movie soundtracks and anime and video game hits.

Some fan favorites include their renditions of music from “Game of Thrones,” “The Walking Dead,” “The Elder Scrolls,” “Final Fantasy,” “Star Trek,” “Star Wars,” “Doctor Who,” “Downton Abbey,” “The Legend of Zelda,” “Silent Hill,” “Harry Potter,” “Saint Seiya,” “The Lord of the Rings” and “The Hobbit.”

In addition to being prolific arrangers, the twins compose and perform their own original pieces for harp duet.

Since December 2013, they have released three cover albums: “Harp Attack,” “Harp Fantasy,” and “Harp Attack 2.” 

The twins have caught the attention of the original artists and music composers with their unique covers. Some artists who have shared their arrangements include Megadeth, Bear McCreary, (composer of the music from “Battlestar Galactica” and “The Walking Dead”), Blind Guardian, Blue Oyster Cult founding member Albert Bouchard and Equilibrium.

Tickets cost $15 for adults and $10 for those younger than age 18. Tickets are available online at www.stkieranarts.org or by calling 603-752-1028.
