“Passionate vocals, intelligent lyrics and an incredibly vivacious sound...”

ABOUT
James Haro In Storage is a music project that began underground in a literal storage room in South Philadelphia during COVID-19 lockdown. Haro crafts music with a powerful blend of lyrics and musical arrangements, drawing comparisons to artists The Shins, Ben Lee, and Rilo Kiley. Haro has Mexican and Indigenous American roots and was born and raised in Los Angeles, now based in Philadelphia.
Haro created the digital solo show "GO" for Philly's SoLow Fest in mid-pandemic 2021, the first in a series of pieces that features original songs and interweaves autobiographical storytelling. Haro went on to create its pseudo-sequel "GO AHEAD", which premiered at the 2022 Philadelphia Fringe Festival in Old City and was selected to be presented as part of Cannonball Festival in 2023. He has since released his debut single, “Verses”, available now on all major music platforms. In 2024, he is slated to release his first EP, which will be produced by second-time collaborator Robby Webb and recorded at Headroom Studios.
He also created and co-hosts the seasonal open-mic "Going Acoustic at Quig's” with musicians Kat Rivers and Emily Schuman.
“Haro hops octaves easily, all while growling, howling, soaring through his anthemic lines.”
-Martha Eies (née Martha Stuckey)

“James is an everyman force of nature.
I sincerely hope he never stops making music or telling stories.”
-Audience Member, FringeArts
