Mike and Sean met in Japan while touring a show. Six weeks of traveling together and absorbing the country and the culture, they took advantage of many opportunities to explore music outside of the show they were touring.

A friendship grew and a musical bond developed. This collection of music is a beginning to this exploration of original ideas, combining Sean’s guitar and Mike’s flugelhorn. They each bring their own material to the table, and they chose to invite a
few friends to join their duo on half of the songs.

Recorded half in New York City and Half in Toronto, Mike and Sean made use of the influences of these two wonderful cities to bring this music to light.

This is the first collaboration of Harkness/Herriott (H2)… to be followed by many more!

“Mike Herriott and Sean Harkness cleverly use their friendship as an additional instrument in their new recording ‘Flights’…It’s a perfect musical pairing like Cabernet and steak that you can taste for yourself…” – TIM TAMASHIRO, CBC

“I love this combination of guitar and flugelhorn; to my ears, these instruments were meant for each other. Harkness and Herriott prove this point, on this… This is an album that you would buy for your friends, it’s that good. I am already
looking forward to their next release!” – ARNOLD VAN KLAVEREN, CKUV
