Harri Harrington (Lord Harri)

Lord Harri's journey through magic is as colourful and unpredictable as his Desert Island Tricks selections. After a technical mishap with his original recording, Harri returns with a refreshed perspective that perfectly captures his playful, versatile approach to magical entertainment.What makes Harri's list truly remarkable is its stunning diversity. From the visual elegance of Tobias Dostal's "Repo" to Adam Dadswell's "Lexicon Plus" that Harri has inventively adapted with rubber ducks, each selection reveals a performer who refuses to be confined to a single magical genre. His approach to choosing effects isn't about adhering to a particular style but rather embracing what brings genuine joy and wonder, both to himself and his audiences.The depth of Harri's magical connections shines through in his stories. Whether describing his love of Urbain’s "Ignite," his evolution through mentor Kieran Johnson's ice production effect "Element," or his friendship with James Keatley who created the  “Spitfire" coin set, Harri demonstrates how the magic community has shaped his development. His inclusion of his own creation, "Harri-O," shows the culmination of these influences into his signature ring-to-Haribo routine that has earned recognition from multiple previous guests.Perhaps most telling is Harri's banishment choice, rather than a specific trick, he banishes egotistical performers and jealousy from the industry. "Surely we should all help each other and share stuff with each other, because only the best is going to come from it," he explains, revealing the collaborative spirit that underpins his approach to magic. And his selection of a finger Unicorn as his non-magic item perfectly encapsulates the whimsical charm that has made him such a distinctive voice in modern magic.Harri’s Desert Island Tricks: Repo Lexicon Plus Ignite Spitfire Rings Bank Fright To the MaxHarri-OBanishment.
