I have been playing diatonic harmonicas for nearly my entire life. Played in a small band while in high school, mostly folk music. Sat in with professionals on a few occasions in New Orleans, and in Ventura. All blues. Always wanted to learn jazz, but life was busy until finally in September 2019, I switched to the chromatic in order to fulfill that wish. I am taking lessons with Yvonnick Prene, and jazz classes on LJS online Inner Circle Courses. Still a beginner, I hope to advance enough to begin playing with others.
