I gave myself a harmonica for Christmas. I was 70 years and 7 months young at the time. I have 2 months under my belt right now and I love it. Tom's videos have been very helpful. Didn't think I would stick to it, but I have. Great way to help fill the day when you're stuck at home because of Covid.
@@TKBarnes I'm still with it. I like to make up new tunes and just wing it. I never learned to read music and I don't plan to at this point. I am hearing impaired, but not enough to keep me from music. Now 72, learning a new skill and sticking with my new hobby has been most satisfying. My grandson was so impressed, he asked me to get him a harmonica. I did, gladly.... Keep paying it forward!

I beat you. I'm 74 and have a C harmonica and would love to be able to play it. I like this kid's way of explaining things. I'm going to try it and want to thank you for sharing your talent.
Ernest, I’m 70 1/2 and just bought a C harp. Always wanted to play blues. My problem will be breath ‘cause I’m living with a heart that’s been damaged ( ⅓ of it is dead same with major artery) but still will do what I can!
Hey Tomlin As a blind person just starting to learn the harmonica, just wanted to say how helpful and easy to follow these videos have been for me. I can only follow the audio and find yours are working well for me. Thanks
27 years old never played one before. drank perhaps a bit too much one night during this quarantine and apparently I ordered a harmonica and had no memory of it the next day. By the time I saw the email it was already shipped so I couldnt back out on it. Well the thing is here now so I have no choice but to learn it!
Just bought one in C to accompany guitar. Like a naive fool I thought it was a 5 minute job to master. I now realise i will be needing your channel. Have subbed.
Haha! I already have a camper van i built, sitting in the driveway. When I read your comment I realised I need to move in to that thing and keep playing the harmonica
Young man,many grateful thanks from this old Girl . Just bought one to play as I go through Breast Cancer treatments, probably one handed ! Nothing like a challenge neh. So from this NZ Wahine, KIA ORA
I am 62 and have decided to pick the harmonica back up... I got one for Christmas when I was little, and didn't get into it enough to go anywhere with it... I took piano lessons when I was younger than that, but quit when I felt it was too girlish a thing for me to be doing... And I regret it every day... I am retired so I have a ton of time on my hands... I have been watching a lot of videos and decided to stick with yours... They are the most informative, to me, and easier to follow and play along with... I'm actually quite good at this lesson, from the start... But I shall keep on using it for exercise and building method... I am playing an Easttop T008k Blues harmonica in C... I love blues so that will be my largest concentration, but rock may get some interest from me, yet... In the Easttop Blues harmonica I have also obtained an A, and a G... I'm waiting on an E... I'm all in on this, and I think those 4 should really be able to cover most anything I am wanting to learn how to play with... I did see your evaluation of an Easttop Blues harmonica, and it was helpful... I'm on a limited income, being a medically retired, disabled veteran and all... So the Easttops just seem like the instrument to go with... I moved into my house a year ago, from living on a sailboat for 17, and I have been truly blessed by our Lord... I am hoping this will be a great way for me to entertain myself and possibly some friends that come to visit... Hopefully rekindling my interest in music, as I did get a very nice used upright piano for my small living room... Thank you for what you are helping me with... I really appreciate it... This will enrich my life on so many levels... TNX... MAC
I am 74 and just started a few few months ago. I really am loving your videos. You are fantastic Super and have such a wonderful presence.. keep it going and thank you very much!
Tomlin is the best teacher I know. I'm German, my English isn't the best, but I can learn so much from these videos. I have a lot of fun and I will be better playing harmonica. Great !!! Thank you.
I've been playing instruments for 21 years and finally was gifted a harmonica for my birthday from my partner. I'm so used to just picking something up and figuring it out but this is a different concept for me( I don't play any wind or brass instruments). thanks for this I'm gonna start small and figure this out one video at a time with you. you are great at teaching
I don't have a harmonica yet but I certainly will begin your lesson is terrific I've been just whistling I'm practicing in this way until I get my harmonica thank you so much you're a very good teacher God bless you
Thank you! I’ve been learning a lot from both you and Gussow. I now have 3 harmonicas as I keep upgrading because I didn’t expect to make such great progress with the help of your teachings.
Got a set of Fender Blues Deluxe for Christmas. Thanks for putting these videos out there guy. I need the structure and inspiration to learn and enjoy it.
Been very ill trying to hang on to my music playing harp but lost so much your style of tutoring is helping me to regain control and confidence 🎵🎶🎵👍thanks
I got my first harmonica (Special 20 in C) last week and your videos have given me so much direction. I was thinking about playing for a while and then last week I spoke with a performer at the Edinburgh Festival who really inspired me to get started. Thanks to that guy, whose name I don't know, and you, I'm really enjoying this new hobby. Thanks, Tomlin!
Tomlin - you are the only person I've ever watched (and I've seen a few!) that fully explains the breathing process. If I ever manage to get beyond the simple train rhythm I'll definitely enrol on your course
Thanks Tomlin, I`m a retired professional singer and decided to play the harp for fun. Bought a C Harp online yesterday and looking forward to doing my practice with your lessons.
Love these videos ! I have wanted to play harmonica all my life but never had the time to learn. Now due to an injury and illness I find myself chair-bound ( mostly ) and a lung that does not cooperate - But my Dr says to exercise it and I will be back to full working order he hopes - I believe and have faith ! I said all that only to explain why I may lag a bit behind or be a bit slow in the lessons. I was given a harmonica yesterday and I know it is not a great one ( Sawtooth Key of C Diatonic ) So far I know how to open the case - Take it out and if I blow on it I can make noise. I did randomly start watching the first persons lessons that came up but had a hard time following. You are great in the way you teach ! This person did teach that when trying to achieve a single note you should tilt the harmonica downward into your bottom lip. I struggled with that for a while and began searching through for other teachers, I found you and would like to ask you if I can ... While trying to tilt the harmonica down did not work I played around and tilted it up and I got a perfect sound. Can I ask would this be ok ? It is only a slight tilt. But when trying to learn more advanced techniques will that be a problem ? Or do you have a different suggestion - I am eager to learn - Thank you.
Thank you for that - I immediately got it when tilting it up and I was happy to hear this would not be a problem. Just to be clear I am crating a single note using my upper lip as opposed to my bottom lip ( as I have heard others say to use my bottom ) - I only own shirts with pockets and carry it i there - I pull it our many times during the day and have very my come to enjoy it.
Young man, you are indeed gifted and blessed. I am learning many new ideas from your lessons. I am from Mangalore, India. Very few people are interested in learning this tiny little beautiful instrument, in my city. I teach those who are keen to start learning. God bless you.
Just tried Harmonica for the very first time with your video and man, I've got a long way to go but this was a really great way to break the ice, cheers pal.
Wow it's tough . But so far you are the best teacher..I have a crossover Marine in G And an Echo in C.. My Echo has 32 squares ,I'm guessing 4 squares is 1 note.... Thank you ,You have an incredible Gift..... And I'm 53 and catching on..... ✌🏼☮️ Thank you ...so much...
Bahahaha 6min and 30 sec, once you get this nailed ..... it'll turn into something like this BBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOM just busts out a mad tune.... Classic lol Love your work
Ahahaha, exactly my reaction too ! ^_^ Once he started jamming and brought to light those oustanding licks, my hair stood up on back of my neck like a soldier at the voice of his commander ! Goddamn ! Tomlin Leckie is such a trickster !
I'm really looking forward to this Tomlin, I'm 67 recently retired. Bought a Horner Marine Band in C. I like your style if this first lesson is anything to go by. Thank you for putting these up to help us.
i always wanted to learn how to play the harmonica, since i was a kid, and now i finally started, thanks for the video, it is great, finally i will use your channel as my music teacher. Thanks for your time and dedication.
Just got my first harmonica and this is the first tutorial I'm watching. As someone who is clueless about how music even works (life-long mental block) I think I may have some hope :D Subscribed!
i think you are a really good teacher, thanks for the free lessons it is helping me out lots. i have been trying to learn for a long time i understand that it takes time and you need to learn slowly thank you
73 years old and bought my first harp so am in need of help (mind that may not have much to do with learning the harp) am looking forward to making a sound that is acceptable to the world in general and my world in particular.
Like youre videos, and im impressed how many peoples has watch this video. Was afraid i was learning to play on a dying instrument! but the blues still lives! Blues on !
I'm stating out to learn harmonica and I've gone in big time (that's one of my faults) and bought 2 Hohner crossover harmonicas. B flat and C Diatonic's. Yours lessons are so helpful and inspiring.
Hi Tomline, Thank you a lot for your lessons. I think it's really grate that yo are spearing some time to teach unknown people all over this globe a cool new skill. Keep up with the good work. I hope I'll get better at it with time! 😊 Best regards from Croatia, Iva
I just ordered a really really cheap one. It was R119.00 which is 6.76 USD. Well as you can tell I'm not really looking to be good or anything. I simply got it to play around and enjoy some peaceful time with my dog. I will learn some beginning things during these crazy times.
Getting the hang of it I am familiar with the blues and play a guitar pretty well I am using the harmonica with garage band and just simple licks are working well P
Thank you so much. We just bought a harmonica yesterday and looked around on the internet a bit for good lessons. Just worked this video through and it works and is fun :) ! Just subscribed :) !
I felt I might be somewhat old being 48 and starting harmonica, but the charming debate below made me feel quite young in fact. :) Great tutorials, Tomlin - started with the 5 most common mistakes video only to find out I was making all of them, naturally, but it helped greatly. Thanks and greetings from Prague.
GREAT APPROACH on the teaching. Glad I've going toe channel, you really stand out for patience, humanity and kindness in your videos. Thank you very much, you were much needed!
just bought my harmonica today ( marine band C) and because of you it started singing !! which is the best method to get used to it ? playing small melodies like this feels like a big help !!what do you suggest ? How would a beginner finds his way to melodies like your last one ( the solo ) ? Thanks for the lesson!
