About Me |
|
About three or four years ago I went into a store to buy me a new harmonica. I had already been 'using' this instrument for a few years, but I never got serious. In a conversation I had with the salesman he gave me a phone number of a great harp teacher, Carlo Reijs. Carlo had been in lots of great bands like Tip on in, Shufflin' feet, maybe it's the blues, Basic Blues and so on. So I called him up and I've been learning stuff from him ever since! On this profile you can listen to some of the music I've been making over the last two years. This also includes some stuff with my new band called Cuttin' Heads! I hope you enjoy it! |
