Pard and Lisa met at one of their performances in 1988 at the Bangor Auditorium in Bangor, Maine. Lisa had been in country music since the age of 8 and has had several bands through the years and worked with many local legends such as Danny Harper, Curly O'Brien, Jackie King, Doc Morrill, Dick Curless, Yodeling Slim Clark and lots of other wonderful Maine talent., Lisa has also worked with a few Nashville recording artists such as Margo Smith, Rex Allen Jr., Steve Wariner, Johnny Russell, and Johnny Rodriguez to name a few. Pard had the opportunity to be on stage with Dick Curless, other artists and also played music with his family and friends. Pard met Lisa and they fell in love and since then have been playing and sharing some beautiful country music together. Together, they moved to Nashville, got married, and lived in and around the Nashville area for several years and performed at live radio shows, campgrounds, local clubs and private parties. In 1993 they were blessed with the birth of their daughter, Katie L. Higgins and she has been singing with them nearly ever since. She too, carries a deep love for music in her heart. Last year at the Acadia Music Festival in Southwest Harbor The Danny Harper Band had the priviledge of backing up Johnny Tillotson and along with everyone else in the Band 14 year old Katie Higgins did an amazing job of backup vocals for Mr. Tillotson.
