Let me know if you can get away for a recording session next time we need a harp player!

I doubt I will be in Atlanta anytime soon but I can always do a harp recording over the internet if you have a song already made

I used to play drums and had a huge rack kit I had to haul around to gigs. One day I picked up a harp and was like wow it fits in my pocket! Now days I can just run up on stage with a random band. Play a few songs. Take all the glory and exit...

And you are one of them. Kudos!

Just out of curiosity, have you been particularly influenced by one player or another? Or two?

(Please don't say John Popper. He has some amazing riffs, but he is so shrill that it hurts.)

Not really many influences. By the time I started playing YouTube was a thing and I got a little bit of everything. I actually learned everything I needed to get started from YouTube and that was almost 10 years ago now.
I can definitely rip a few popper riffs lol. I actually used to be able to do all of runaround and sing it. It was exausting
