Stuff I think is important.

This year, I’ve finally gotten on the ball and decided to start my own project. For the first time ever, I’ll be fronting a band where I do all the singing and writing or co-writing most of the material with choice covers I’ve always wanted to do. The project is called Thee Haradas and it’a 3 piece with guitar, bass (electric and upright) and drums. Along with me for this rollercoaster ride, I’ll be backed up by both the very capable and super cool Corey Kaiser on bass and Rockabilly Bobby Lee Moller on drums. This promises to be a super fun project and I’m really looking forward to playing a town near you!

So, this may not be much news to most of the people who know, but in the month of March, Ruby Dee and I have left Austin, TX to relocate to New York City! I will miss all my Austin friends and all the bands and people I have played with, and now we’re onto a new chapter.

We will continue to do Ruby Dee and The Snakehandlers – because, once a Snakehandler, always a Snakehandler – and as I do what I do, I will continue to do pickup gigs, steady bands, recording and touring as a member of a band or hired gun. Looking forward to bringing to you the Ruby Dee And The Snakehandlers’ Texas-style roots-twang-billy flavor to a bar, lounge, honky-tonk, roadhouse, brewery, gas station, grocery store, bingo parlor, pizza joint, or any other venue that’s screaming for live music !

So – submitted for your approval, enter this new dimension. A dimension of sound. A dimension of sight. A dimension of mind. Moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. Enter a man, Jorge Harada. A man who plays guitar and bass. A man who is an unknown variable in a sea of constants. A man whose mettle will be tested yet again in a fiery crucible of rock’n’roll. Who needs guitar or bass? Stay tuned.

Hello friends!

I’m happy and super excited to announce that I will be accompanying talented Texas singer-songwriter Patricia Vonne on electric and acoustic guitar during her upcoming April tour in Germany. Ms. Vonne will be promoting her 7th recording entitled TOP OF THE MOUNTAIN, and the tour will coincide with CD release events both in Europe and Texas. In addition, Ms. Vonne is also crowdfunding support for the CD release through pledgemusic.com.

TOP OF THE MOUNTAIN was produced by Rick Del Castillo and Michael Ramos and features co-writes with Joe “King” Carrasco, Alexandro Escovedo, Rosie Flores, Willie Nile, and Steven Hufsteter. Below are all the pertinent linkages, y’all. Have a look, I think you’re gonna dig this.
