Glass Harp are a rock band formed in Youngstown, Ohio, in 1968, consisting of Phil Keaggy, drummer John Sferra, and bassist Daniel Pecchio. Phil Keaggy was previously a member of the mid‑1960s garage rock band the Squires; one of their songs, which he co‑wrote, appears on the compilation Highs in the Mid‑Sixties, Volume 9. In 1967 he briefly recorded with The New Hudson Exit. At one point, the band had reportedly considered Joe Walsh as lead guitarist. Walsh would later become known for his work with the James Gang, his solo career, and as a member of the Eagles. In 1968, Keaggy and longtime friend drummer John Sferra, along with bassist Steve Markulin, formed Glass Harp. The band performed throughout the Youngstown area, playing venues ranging from school dances to clubs. This early lineup recorded several demos and released the single “Where Did My World Come From?” on the United Audio label in 1969. Markulin left the group to join his cousin Joe in another successful Youngstown band, The Human Beinz. John Carazino briefly replaced him as bassist, after which Keaggy and Sferra recruited Daniel Pecchio. Pecchio, formerly of The Poppy, was also a flautist—a skill that would later feature in several Glass Harp songs. With new demos recorded and new management in place, the band focused on refining their live performance and seeking a recording contract.
