DURHAM COUNTY POETS

Durham County Poets are a “band” in the truest sense of the word! There’s something about this band that leaves you feeling that everything might be OK in the world after all. There’s a human spirit that lives in these people and their music is the medium that allows that spirit to roam free. This will be their 4th appearance at The Fallout Shelter and we look forward to this show every year...it's ALWAYS different, always vibrant, meticulously executed and on top of that...this band is PURE FUN to experience. This is just a GREAT show!

“Lead singer Kevin Harvey and his band are sonic shape shifters of the first order. Whether it’s blues, folk, soul, country, gospel, or New Orleans swing, they purvey it with skill, aplomb and pure honesty.” - Nate Dow - Boston Herald

From their 2023 Visit to The Fallout Shelter

It all started in a small café in Ormstown, Quebec. The band continued to percolate and spread onto the Canadian music scene, allowing them to tour across Canada and on into the United States. Each member writes and arranges, and brings something unique to the table. You’ll hear a variety of genres and a broad range of styles. Be it Blues, Soul, Folk, R&B or Gospel, it all weaves seamlessly together to create a truly authentic contemporary Canadiana sound.
