ABOUT

Harp For Hire. I am currently playing harmonica in a band that rehearses once a week and gigs every two weeks. I am interested in adding more gigs to expand my musical horizons. I am able to improvise in blues, country, funk and other genres. I play lead solos which is particularly useful in a duo setting giving the singer a chance rest his/her voice between verses. I am available for one-off gigs or on a regular basis. I also play some lead guitar. Contact me by email kellylebla Name is Kelly.
