You are one of the best harmonica instructors on the internet.

[@TomlinHarmonica]

Oh wow thank you Edward that is awesome to say but there are a ton of great teachers out there :-)

[@ENStein-le8nj]

I have an arsenal of harmonicas, have been playing since 1990. However, I have never researched online lessons, just bought books and self taught. I have learned more in the past two weeks of watching AND practicing your lessons than in the past decade on my own. I'm jamming with a group now! I am bending notes and chugging ! Thank you.

[@TomlinHarmonica]

Wow that is super awesome to hear! I'm so glad you enjoy the videos :-)

[@mdy9746]

I have been "playing" for years in my car when I can find a song that is in the key of the harmonica I carry. But over the last two weeks I have learned how to play so much better than I ever did on my own! Thanks so much for these really great lessons!

[@TomlinHarmonica]

+Mike DY hi Mike that is awesome to hear that you are doing well :-) keep up the good work and practice ;-)

[@shannoncrawford8902]

Tomlin. Your lessons are so incredibly beneficial and easy to understand. I find myself getting better with each lesson without really trying. You are my magical harp guru. Thank you

[@TomlinHarmonica]

That's flattering - thanks for the kind words! :-)

[@Nenden]

It is a clear demonstration, of how those simple slim notes, later on, became full bodied and turned a seemingly simple riff, into a great sounding simple riff. A really enjoyable video Tomlin; cheers mate.

[@TomlinHarmonica]

+Darren Batty thanks Darren!

[@alexconnor9680]

I'm just starting out and I'm finding this to be a great exercise to practice with. It feels great to get to the point where I can play along (which isn't every time, so I keep practicing). Thanks!

[@matthewscheidt7754]

You make it so easy to learn. At 9:51 in the video that is awesome!! At 10:01 in the video how did you get the harp to flow like that? I always wanted to know how to make the harp sound like that..

Hi your videos are awesome. One question, how can I breathe as I over draw I think. Thanks

[@debraharp3665]

You are a fantastic instructor. I still sound like a wounded animal though

[@jonzjacobzalzos8734]

[@heinzfroewis]

Very good for practicing with a second player.

[@MovingForwardAdventures]

Hi Tomlin, Thanks for putting this videos out. I just picked up my first Harmonica last week and found your channel. Do you have any suggestions of what the first five videos of yours I should watch first should be to get started. I'll try this one here that you have here for right now. Thanks and take care!

[@TomlinHarmonica]

Hiya, I would do my beginners series - tomlinharmonicaschool.com/p/complete-beginners-harmonica-introduction-course

[@frankschumacheroderaccount5347]

Hey Tomlin.Cooles T-shirt 😊✌️

[@albertobenevenuto77]

Hi Tom, thank you for the nice lesson. I have improve a lot with your channel. I just like to suggest you to place the tabs and partitures on top of the video. Otherwise the list of video suggestions cover them every time the lesson is stopped , at least on ps4. thanks again

[@a3xloser]

I got noob question when you have 3 single notes all draw or blow like -3 -2 -3. do you blow 3 times or long blow moving the harp? thanks anyone.

[@TomlinHarmonica]

That is an excellent question - you do one long blow and move the harp :-)

[@a3xloser]

thanks so much for replying, I been blowing like an 80 year old trying to blow all the candles out one by one

[@a3xloser]

while your being so helpful do you fancy tabbing out the fist few bars of the tv show Kung fu kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKfYZoyZor6bibM I hum it while I do long walks lol

[@begonaperezredondo66]

Thanks!

[@beboamr8784]

thanks teacher 😍

[@TomlinHarmonica]

+Bebo Amr my pleasure my friend :-)

[@moustafatawfik4472]

that's awesome 💯but would you tell me the best one to play a blous music on it 🙏👌

[@TomlinHarmonica]

+Dursh Toto do you mean the best harmonica? I'd suggest Hohner Special 20 or Suzuki Bluesmaster to get started

[@alvaronbg]

you lesson are so usefull but I wish to know how do you make your tabs ? do you use a software? thx

[@TomlinHarmonica]

+alvaronbg hiya yes, I use Sibelius 7

[@baguetteboi120]

Is up arrow draw or blow?

[@craigfigures8753]

By any chance were you at the Tesco in Canonmills today about 12 o'clock I think I saw you =D

[@TomlinHarmonica]

+Craig Figures I was indeed :-)

[@b.j.thomas8606]

Is the free blues course the same as the one on Udemy (I already have that one. it's great! hanks!)

[@TomlinHarmonica]

+B.J. Thomas it is indeed :-)

[@mikedavis6463]

what app do you use for tab and musical notation

[@TomlinHarmonica]

+mike davis Sibelius 7 :-)

[@pauldavies9786]

Love it, can’t do the breath though

[@vdhdgfhdfh]

so many draws! how to deal with extra air?

[@TomlinHarmonica]

+vdhdgfhdfh I would recommend not breathing too hard which most people do.

[@LordTytusMandarynka]

How do you do that vibrato in the end of "how it will eventually after lots of practice turn out" part?

[@sretenzujic]

thank you very much ;)

[@tomporter914]

good job Tom nice t shirt to :)

[@kevinobrien6837]

which brand suzuki harmonica ??

[@TomlinHarmonica]

+Kevin o'brien I tend to use Manjis or Olives

[@tomporter914]

Showing your arms off? Lol :) nice t shirt :)

[@TomlinHarmonica]

+Tom Porter lol - I need some bigger t-shirts :-)

[@tomporter914]

Tomlin Leckie nah they r fine u look good in small t shirts ;)

[@davidchurch1954]

Hey Tomlin, I don't suppose yo have a tab for the chugging call and response riffs you put together at the end do you? Your videos are helping tremendously, thanks so much ! peace

[@2lioncobra]

This is great, but it sure makes me dizzy. I've got to learn to push air out my nose during the blows to get more air back into my lungs in preparation for the draws.

[@TomlinHarmonica]

+dee hu also make sure you don't breathe to hard. Most people suck too much air in when they should be playing lightly.

[@jcogden5829]

Thanks for the great tips and videos Tomlin. Regarding getting out of breath, I will look out for breathing too hard and taking in too much air. My question is it looks like you take breaths using your mouth taken just off the harp. I seem to naturally do catch-up breaths with my nose, should I change this habit?

[@АлександрИванов-ш1ц6щ]

cool :D

[@TomlinHarmonica]

+александр Иванов :-)

[@burntreynolds5701]

I think you're my official harmonica teacher. I don't understand has the notes are laid out. Like on the piano they're laid out in order. On a guitar they're laid out for 4ths 5ths & Octaves. When The Levvee Breaks. AWESOME! RIGHTEOUS! RIGHTEOUS!!!!!

[@shadowgoethe]

It's a good thing I don't have asthma lol

[@goldtoothcat4578]

I love Wednesdays

[@TomlinHarmonica]

+gold tooth cat yay! Me too :-)

[@cmpokhriyal]

Great lesson. Thanks very much.
