@BrendanPowerMusic Brendan Power is famous internationally as a phenomenal harmonica player in many genres and also as an instrument innovator. He’s invented many unique harmonicas to increase the expressiveness and range possibilities of the instrument family, and is constantly experimenting. Brendan also has a fascinating personal story in that he discovered the harmonica in his university years, and changed his life in order to master it. He is completely self-taught and you may have heard his playing on albums with Sting, Kate Bush, Van Morrison, movies like Shanghai Noon and Atonement, or over 20 of his solo albums. I was thrilled to have this opportunity to speak with him, but unfortunately we had some really big internet delays, which you may notice as a few instances of unavoidably choppy editing. During the episode Brendan demonstrates a few of his harmonicas in different styles, and I’ve added timestamps below. As well, this episode is available as a podcast, and the transcript will soon be published as well: https://www.leahroseman.com/episodes/...Brendan's website: https://www.brendan-power.com/
