Very funky rhythm section, the harp sound works well with the grooves.  I bet people are dancing when they listen to this.   

I take it the harp amp is the cream-colored one at the side of the stage near the bass player in the second video?  Didn't see the front of the amp, and there are a lot of cream-colored tube amps out there, including some purpose-built for harp.  So I've got no idea what it is.  It looks big enough to hold a 4x10" or 2x12" speaker setup, and if that's so then it's probably a 35 to 40 watt tube amp.  Any of that right?
