Harvest Thieves at Continental Club

Mar 15, 2025

8:00pm – 8:40pm CT

Continental Club

Upon first listen, Harvest Thieves' native Texan roots show through. The band's well-crafted lyrics are confessional yet fluid, and they paint with strokes that put you squarely into a story - in a way that eases a relation to your own. With potent storytelling, a smattering of rollicking guitars and fiddle playing, colorful harmonies, and the occasional honky-tonk tune, Harvest Thieves gather the most vulnerable details of their crossroads and recount their experience in a manner that provides an openness and honesty that most artists never approach. The Austin based alt-country six-piece keeps busy, bringing their barroom swagger and swirling balladry to the streets of their hometown and beyond.

"Harvest Thieves is at its best when Reinisch and Fisette sing together, whether trading verses or teaming in sweet harmony."
- No Depression

"The band cuts their smart, blistering narratives with a tight alt.country sound that doesn't shy from the genre's Nineties roots."
- Austin Chronicle

"The gritty lyrics and the country-rock work so well. It’s an excellent album."
- Americana UK
