WHAT: Ben Harper achieved cult status in the 90's through airplay on college and alternative radio stations. He then gained a wider audience by playing his groove-laden, funky soul and blues to sold-out stadiums with the support of his backing band, the Innocent Criminals. Harper's performance includes hit songs such as "Steal My Kisses," "Burn One Down" and "Morning Yearning."

This HDNet Concert Series premiere was filmed at the Molson Amphitheater in Toronto, Canada. It was the final show of Harper's most recent tour.
