We had Rod to play amazing jazz for my dads 91st birthday dinner. He nailed it! My dad was so happy and everyone loved it. He was wonderful! Highly recommend!
I hired Rod to play jazz guitar at the brunch after my Neice’s wedding. His music provided the perfect ambience. Listen closely if you wanted (and I sure did!), but for others who may be busy catching up with relatives they didn’t have to shout. Rod has a lovely, gracious personality and indulged my desire to sing one song. He also brought along a superb bass tour layer at no additional cost. Their music was a mix of standards and jazz classics. They both dressed very nicely. Rods pre-event communication was also great. Responded right away. And when I had questions also got in touch immediately. I hope to have the occasion to hire him again soon!
Response from Rod Harris Jr:
Dina! The pleasure was all mine! We had alot of fun!

In March 2018, Rod released his well-anticipated hip- hop/jazz EP entitled “Exits & Options”. The “X/O” Ep features renditions of classic songs as well as original material. In 2018, RHJ received a Grammy Nomination for his guitar work and musical contributions on Neo-Soul Legend Musiq Soulchild’s album “Feel The Real”.
Rod can also be seen performing in the hit film biopics “Cadillac Records” (starring Beyoncé and Adrian Brody), “Bessie” - (starring Queen Latifah) and most recently season 2 of BET’s “American Soul” (Feb 2020) and the National Geographic series “The American Genius: Aretha Franklin” (starring Cynthia Erivo).
