Harvest formed in Rotorua in early 2004 playing a range of metal based music. The band began gigging in December that year and by 2005 had placed third in the Rotorua regional Rockquest finals.
In 2006, Hugh White took over vocals and Harvest began to take their music in a more metal/hard rock direction, influenced by the likes of Pantera, Avenged Sevenfold and Alice in Chains.
In 2007, Harvest won the Rotorua Rockquest regional final and placed in the top 12 bands nationwide. This enabled them to record the song 'Rain'.
In June 2008, Harvest released a 3-track E.P. called 'Evolution' and have received airplay on The Rock's Axe Attack and on Hamilton, Wellington, Christchurch and Taranaki radio stations. They have also appeared on Alt TV and have played shows all over the North Island.
After a hugely successful North Island schools tour in mid 2009, Harvest now plan to focus heavily on playing more shows while working on expanding their original song list.
