It all started on a rainy February afternoon in 1989 and quickly went on to become an all-boys dream.
Harrie Harrie and Harrie Lee went into a dirty basement in the city off Arnhem to lay the foundations for "The Harries" and there now trademark "Speed up punkrock with a huge smile".
In 1994 they jumped into to the van for a 10 country, 8-week tour throughout Europe to promote their new album "The thing that sticks with you" released on notorious German punkrock label Nasty Vinyl. Several more tours and releases followed this.
In the year of 1996 the dream came to an end. Rock 'n roll buried its next victims. The Harries tried to live normal lives. A job, marriage, kids and mortgage, you know normal life. Well, normal ?
A few years later…. Harrie Harrie and Harrie Lee found out that it is impossible to live a normal live without punkrock. After some false attempts, finally graduating from college, it finally dawned on them that nothing apart from punkrock really matters anymore. They picked up their instruments, recruited new drummers and started playing and recording again.
In 2006 they played as support act for the famous Dutch punkrockband De Heideroosjes. That was so much fun that they recorded the EP “Harries’89”.
In 2010, after playing several gigs and having ideas for new songs, Harries’89 decided to record a new 9 tracks CD and 6 tracks 10”. These 2 albums are both called “Ready for you”.
Between 2013 and 2019 Harries’89 did some small tours trough Europe. Especially Sardinia (Italy) and Slovenia where highlights of these tours.
2023: Harries89 still rock the world with high-energy punkrock, great hooks and catchy sing-a-longs. Bringing back memories of bands like the Ramones (the energy), Buzzcocks (the melody), Toy Dolls (the humor) all played with the sound of today.
And they are coming back to Slovenia! At the end of October, begin November they will shine on several stages in Slovenia.
