 The Bonafides are a group of friends from New Bern, NC, having a blast while playing songs they love. With acoustic and electric guitars, mandolin, fiddle, bass, drums, banjo, harmonicas and soaring harmonies, our musical tastes range far and wide. Need some Carter Family classics? Check. Old Crow Medicine Show? We gotchu. Old-time fiddle and banjo tunes? We can go for days. ZZ Top? Yup, with banjo and extra crunchy electric mandolin thrown in for flavor. You’ll hear songs you haven’t heard in a while, and songs you’ve never heard played like this before.

Leiber and Stoller performed by Nicky Harris

Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller’s story began in 1950 when the pair worked together to write music, bonding over their love for boogie-woogie and the blues. In the years to follow, Leiber and Stoller
wrote hits for many famous singers including Willie Mae “Big Mama” Thornton , The Rolling Stones, Elvis Presley and hundreds of other singers. Hits include “Don’t”, “Hound Dog” and “There Goes My Baby”. In 1985 the pair was inducted into the Songwriter’s Hall of Fame, and in 1991 awarded the ASCAP Founders’ Award. Singer/Songwriter Nicky Harris was raised and still resides in Greenville, NC. By the time he graduated from high school, he had been in and out of several bands and played just about every kind of music. Harris credits these years for giving him the feel for Rock, Rhythm and Blues,
Country and Soul. In 1979 Nicky formed his own record label and released several regional singles. Harris had a “Top Single Pick” in Billboard and an “Indie Feature Pick” in Cashbox on two separate releases.
