About us

“What about music?”
That was the question that started it all

BARHP was born out of the need for a few friends to escape the restrictions and blues of the 2020 pandemic and its lock down requirements, and to bask in the peaceful embrace of nature. A camping trip was planned, and subsequently this very important question about music came up while making plans for food and tents. It led us down a path that saw us dancing and revelling in the beauty of the world around us. It was an experience we could not believe was possible, and we wanted to share it with everyone we could.

We understood the magic and healing powers that the mountains and the sky have to disconnect one from any stresses they may face, and so if anyone were to find themselves between a rock and a hard place, we figured we could provide a space for that.

We are a trio that bring many years of experience in different industries, but most importantly we are passionate about
music and creating magical experiences.
