"Summertime" - Live version - Filip Jers (chromatic harmonica) & Emil Ernebro (guitar)

I am so grateful and happy that playing music is my full time job! Playing my chromatic and diatonic harmonicas everyday. So much fun to play with Emil Ernebro ‪@EmilErnebroGuitar‬ . This is from a live performance at Värnamo Musik, Sweden from September 2024.

Thank you Filip! I've long dreamed of hearing Summertime performed by you on the chromatic harmonica. It's amazing!

My pleasure! Love this tune! And playing with Emil, fantastic groove. As you hear I am using a 16 hole and the song is in A-minor.
