How To Build A Blues Harmonica Solo 

Your talent is not only in playing but certainly also in teaching.

This guy is naturally charismatic and makes him a great teacher. Thanks for these vids man.

You are naturally cool. Please keep sharing the language of music... Men like you can share your creative gifts and make the world a better place :-)

I've been working on the diatonic for years, but your two lessons on improvising are spot on and are the single most small collection of ideas and suggestions are entertaining, not difficult to understand and easy implement immediately. Thanks.

Great as always! glad to have you back!

what makes this video one of the best is the emphasis of silence and simplicity. the Victor Wooten reference was great. I remember him saying "you speak more when you say less" in one of his videos. this lesson has helped me. thanks.

Excellent description of music as conversation. This is so true and is such a useful analogy when it comes to the art of improvisation.

Good video and from the heart. "The restraint is where the power is ", I like that concept.

It's so great young guys are keeping this art going..great lesson by the way

I'm part way on my blues journey and find myself coming back to this video every once in a while. Absolutely fabulous - kind of an all-around lesson. Thanks my friend.

Your love for music is fun to watch! Great instructor too!

Your teaching style brought me to tears, man. Fan for life!

I love the way you teach.

Genius...this is one of the best lessons Ive seen.

Very good instruction. This is exactly the type of information I feel I need to build the solo I want to be able to play.

Absolutely top notch! Thanks!

Your honesty humbles me. That crowd pleaser really bangs on. I'd say knowing how to 'thrill' one hole both sucking or blowing gets the people go crazy too mate!

Simply great stuff, thanks Luke

Best harmonica advices ever heard.

Wise and clear. Best lesson

Really awesome man, thanks for sharing. Great explanations, great playing, and just a really friendly and approachable personality.

You are a great communicator. All your lessons have solid messages.

Man, I never thought about learning music that way. Thank you very much, sir. That just opened my mind.

you are charming and a great teacher! thanks and God bless.

3 months of searching for how to play anything. Your simple question and answer is the first thing I can play that sounds like blues music! Thank You!!

Hetero male here but god I can watch this guy for ever, love this man's joy and charisma. his smile is Infective

A great music lesson in general. Thankyou honest musician!

Great ideas for any instrument, thank you! I'll be checking out your other videos in the future!

Yes. I love your phrasing. I don't know much but, I always tell my grandson to play into the harmonica like he is singing the words in his head I didn't know it worked so well out side of melody.

Right on Bro! Thanks for affirming and teaching so well!

You made it all so logical ... Two thumbs up from HCMC.

What a nice fella... THIS WAS SO GREAT! Thank you so much!

Excellent advice...as well as commentary. Thanks for the great tips! Best regards, Ron

OMG!!! Love the trilling!!

I'm 78 with a lifetime of singing which still continues, I gotta make this harp sing and guys like you are showing me the way, thank you so much, I taught my art and I see the teacher in you.

Love your lesson Caleb

thank you for taking the time and effort to do this for the people.. very cool

Love this! I play guitar but can see this way of playing making me lean to the harmonica as a favorite....sweet! Thanks so much.

Yay! You're finally making more videos

You hit the spot! Thanks for your inspiration. VERY Helpful.

Wow! That's just amazing lesson!!! I love it so much I can't tell you!

Thanks for another great video!

Great info for harpists at any stage of development. Thank you

After watching this, I was so inspired I immediately put on a jamtrack and started playing. And guess what - I was already 100% better than before. Thanks!

Hi from Australia! Im stoked I've found your tutorials..I dig your charisma and clear explanations. Thankyou

Just all I have been looking. Thanks man!

Fabulous Job!!!

I love the way you teach !

Thanks for the great ideas! You have a good sense of humor and are a very effective communicator. Thanks for the lesson. You make playing the harp with purpose a fun thing to do.

hey man i just wanna say i just recently started playin the harmonica (its somethin ive always wanted to learn) and honestly ur videos have helped me way more than any other videos ive seen, seriously!

I'm basically a harp learner. I've watched a lot of tutes and there are some true masters out there ...but this one takes the cake for me. You got right down to the very basics of it all and mentioned things I've not heard before. I love the call and answer thing...I was doing that on guitar decades ago and it's really effective, never crossed my mind to try it on the harp though...WTF not l have no idea 🤣 The space is another....l've been trying to jam every possible note into a solo and you're absolutely right....less is more....definitely less is more!! I even found myself laughing along with you...man that's what a teacher should do...have his students hanging on his every word!!! So thank you....and very well done indeed. I'm subscribed now...will come back to this tute again and again.... and will follow you more closely

Great lesson! Been waiting for something like this.

Love the shout out to Victor Wooten - I'm a bass player for over 20 years and I just started learning how to play harmonica about a month ago. Still working on mechanics and fundamental consistency but I think it's never too early to start thinking about the deeper aspects of the craft. Loving this instrument! Thank you for all your guidance.

I've been messing around with the harmonica for 3 months. Watched numerous videos about bending, couldn't get it down. Nobody ever said OU.... thank you!! That was almost effortless!!

Awesome!!!

That is awesome! Great teacher. Thank you for that.

Thank you so much! Great ideas! I feel that I've improved just from this one lesson! It will now be my 'signature' tune lol

Lucas, Impressive video!! I am learning the language thanks to you!Soon I will have a story , building it with your help!
