Harry Perry Biography

Harry Perry is one of the most popular and richest Guitarist who was born on May 19, 1951 in Washington, Washington, D.C., United States. A popular Venice Beach musician, he is best known for his ability to play an electric guitar while riding on his roller skates. He filed a class-action lawsuit against Los Angeles Police Department, claiming that the ban on street performers in Venice Beach was an infringement of freedom of speech.

He was a guest star in The Pick of Destiny, starring alongside Jack Black.

Skate Town Ball and Harry Perry’s Greatest Hits of the Millennium. He typically uses distortion effects and plays in a style reminiscent of Jimi Hendrix or Eddie Van Halen. He began playing on Venice Beach in 1973. He is dedicated to health and fitness, running twenty miles daily and practicing Kundalini yoga. He is a non-smoking vegetarian.

After growing up in Michigan and recording with his first band there, Harry Perry began performing his original songs and guitar compositions on the Venice Beach Boardwalk in 1973. In addition to being considered the most famous musician who performs at the Venice Beach Boardwalk, he is considered one of the area’s most famous skaters, first on traditional roller skates, then on inline skates when they were invented, and currently on Landroller skates. Over the course of nearly four decades, the Venice Beach Boardwalk became a world-famous tourist attraction where a variety of artists performed and sold various wares associated with their creative arts, such as CDs and T-shirts. Then, during the early 1990s, at a time when real estate developers wanted to gentrify Venice, California, the Los Angeles City Council passed an ordinance banning people from public performance on the Venice Beach Boardwalk. Using the ordinance as its bludgeon, the Los Angeles Police began to harass people who performed there. In response, Harry Perry became a named plaintiff in a class action lawsuit in U.S. District Court against the Los Angeles Police Department and the ordinance. The plaintiffs based their suit on various constitutional principles that provide for freedom of expression, commerce, and congregation. After many years of litigation, The U.S. Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in favor of Perry and his co-plaintiffs. However, their victory was short lived. The Los Angeles City Council created new legislation that severely restricted performance on the Venice Beach Boardwalk rather than banning it altogether. In addition, the City of Santa Monica followed the lead of the Los Angeles City Council and passed statutes that strictly limited the ability of performers like Harry Perry to sell CDs and T-shirts to their audiences. Perry and others have initiated legal action in response, alleging that the combination of gentrification and the performance restriction ordinances threatens to destroy the very atmosphere and commerce that made Venice Beach the social mecca for which it is famous. He met Andrea Tenaglia and they became the new “Couple of musician” in Venice Beach.

He was born in Michigan and spent most of his childhood playing guitar.
