The BluegrassHarp discussion group is a group where harmonica players who like Bluegrass, Country, and Old Time music can discuss tips and techniques used for playing harp in these genres without being overwhelmed by the Blues players. We have members ranging from beginners to pros, and all are welcome. Less experienced players are welcomed by all and are encouraged to post their questions and get advice from the more experienced players.
Regards,
