The Harlequins

Always evolving yet always the same, The Harlequins are a three-piece rock n roll band who believe in carefully crafting songs that can take the listener on an inward journey if they listen hard enough and if they don’t they can still tap their feet to them. "With a solid, swoony rhythm section -- which helps create the crest and fall of this band's simple yet effective soundscapes -- and a vocal crooner who crafts swaying, mesmerizing melodies, The Harlequins have become one of the more intriguing new bands in Cincinnati's Indie scene. There is an unforced shimmer to the band's unique glide." ~Mike Breen, City Beat. "The Harlequins just keep getting better and better every time I see them. Sometimes they remind me of a trio of kids let loose in a sandbox full of classic albums, jacked up on caffeine and those ubiquitous Cincinnati smiles. On this night they delivered a set based on classic rock n' roll, but with enough balls to slip in some devilish twists and turns. I kept hearing flashes of mid '90s-style Pavement slacker rock and early '80s post-punk psychedelia, tempered with pure shake 'em down Midwestern groove. ~ Random Old Records Blog
