   About Uwharria

pronounced: yoo-warr'-ee-uh, as in the Central Carolina bioregion

Members of Uwharria have played together in bands together for 15 years, but Uwharria started in 1999 as a group of environmental activists who wanted to create a musical extension of that activism. All songs are a glorification of nature- skunks, woodpeckers, sea turtles, dung beetles, being devoured by a jaguar, etc. 8 days after forming, the band had written 7 songs, played their first show, and recorded a demo. The full-length "Fury in the Foothills" was recorded in January 2002, and released on Slave Audio Documents the following year. A 9 song live Uwharria CD came free with Slave Magazine 8 in May 2003.

We haven't played a show since 2004- or was it 2005? Don't count on one anytime soon. Drummer in Finland. Guitarist in California. Rest in different parts of North Carolina.

"Fury in the Foothills," our 13-song studio CD can be purchased for $6 here.

Our split CD with Crimson Spectre is out now. 9 Uwharria songs & even a video of one of the songs featuring a grizzly bear attack! Get it here.

We urge you to go out and act in defense of the Earth. A few organizations we think you should check out: Rainforest Action Network, Dogwood Alliance, Native Forest Network, Rainforest Information Centre, Global Exchange, Southern Appalachian Biodiversity Project, ASEED, Freinds of the Earth, Student Environmental Action Coalition, Blue Ridge Environmental Defense League...
