The first two songs are posted there now and we'll add 2 more each week through the end of the year. There's over an hour of live performance footage coming your way, here's the first two:

The harmonica is such a diverse instrument. It can go from being soft to vibrant, and can be both a lead melody or a background instrument. Since it's a pocket-sized portable instrument that can be played anywhere, it has a very personalized sound and feel. Traditional campfire songs go well with the instrument, like "Amazing Grace" which dates all the way back to 1779.
