A great Harmonica for a great price is Juzzie Smith Blues Harmonica.
juzziesmith.co...
This song uses the Key C.
I love sharing this lesson as these two exercises are very simple and sound amazing. The tips I’m sharing can be used for any song you learn. Just remember to stay relaxed and have fun. Memorise this lesson so you can put your harmonica in your pocket and play anytime you get a chance. 5 minute practice sessions are really fun. Remember a little bit of lip balm can help for sliding along the harmonica.
If you have a friend who plays guitar the chords are -
Exercise 1 - G C rpt
Exercise 2 - Dm C Dm C Dm C Bb Am Dm rpt
These exercises are also great if you want play harmonica in neck rack and guitar at the same time.
If you would like to learn more harmonica my course ‘Press Play & Blow Away’ will get you playing well within a month. Just 15min practice each day.

I have watched hundreds of guitar "instructors" and dozens of harmonica instructors over the years, but I swear your talent and your ability to clearly explain is unequaled. The way you teach simple concepts and incrementally build them into amazing music is almost magic. It is clear that you love both playing and teaching. What incredible talent! THANK YOU!!!!
Thanks 😊
I could not say it any better Barry.
Only just started learning at 65, when you said about relating timing to walking I found I was listening to all other sounds around me and relating those to the sound of harmonica, a lot actually work, I found your video's much easier to understand that others that just say do this but not how.
That’s great. Soundtracks of life 😊
Good Lord man, you can teach. Thank you for this. By the way for anyone interested. Juzzie' s harmonica course is first rate and worth its weight in gold.
Thanks Bruce. Really appreciate your support 😊
Not sure if I'm learning fast enough, but I know I haven't felt this relaxed in ages. Funny that someone commented that Juzzie is the Bob Ross of harmonica, now I get it.
I like that last little lick. I felt like a dusty cowboy slowly riding into town after a long time away.
I love the simplicity of your teaching. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks 😊
Books, videos, books, videos... After a year of goofing around with this thing, I think I finally found a place to really learn. Thank you!
That’s great. Have fun!
No one enjoys music like Juzzie, he makes you want to groove.
And now you're TEACHING us!!! Thanks a million!!
Hi Juzzie,
I'm an old dude that is attempting to learn how to play the harmonica and have been seriously having fun with it over the past four months or so. A lot of the online lessons have been a bit involved -- not that it is a bad thing, overall. I wish to take this opportunity to thank you for sharing your relaxed methods and flowing jams that give me a chance to unwind and play along ... adding some of my own "feel" to the mix is the most important important aspect of why I'm here.
Cheers!
John in So. Cal. USA
That’s great John. Learning to jam and add your own feel is such a special feeling. Well done. Keep on jamming 🎶
Having trouble with breathing and hyperventilating and being in love with the sounds of a harmonica my whole life, seeing your genuine enthusiasm and calmness made me order a Seydel!! Cant wait to be rocking alongside with the boys, this vid reminded me that music is all about fun and relaxation, not pressure. Thank you man, really.
That’s great. Relaxed tone is the best tone 😊
Moc díky za tu krásnou hudbu ❤
A very.simple but massively effective lesson for me. Thanks
There are no words to express how much I appreciate you and your laid-back calm and positive style of teaching because I’m 44 have playing guitar My whole life self taught i have always been infatuated with harmonica, but never really understood it until recently when I started watching some of your videos and I’m amazed at the progression of learning that I’ve been able to have with your videos. Thank you and have a wonderful day.
Thanks Joseph. Sure is lovely feeling to share and know your learning. Maybe try with the guitar together 😊
Same here
I saw one of your videos in Shorts. It led me here. Thank you so much for all of these.
I don’t know much yet, but the fact that I stumbled on your channel first and I feel like it’s the best place I could have found to start playing harmonica.
Thank you!
No one else does this!! Jamming with you is a blast!! I love this!!
Thank you from Kyrgyzstan! Bravo!
Juzzie как всегда позитивный!) Спасибо за уроки и за хорошую энергию😉
I saw one of your videos in Shorts. It led me here. Thank you so much for all of these.
I don’t know much yet, but I believe there is something to be said about the fact that I stumbled on your channel first and I feel like it’s the best place I could have found to start playing harmonica.
Thank you!

Greetings from Latvia.
So simple and easy to understand, any beginner can fall in love with this music with your tutorials. I have no words to express my excitement!!!
Fantastic! 🎶🎶🎶🎉🎉🎉
Thanks 😊
Jussie you make it all look so easy. That’s a testament to your being a fantastic harp player. I know it’s practice practice practice.. appreciate your taking time to make these videos.
I learned more from seeing 3 of your videos than I have in all my previous tries, and I have been trying for 20 years 😅 And I'm actually having fun while practicing with you. Thank you! 🥰
That’s great 😊
This lovely person has unique talent 😻 love ya 🤩🤩🤩
Very good! Here I am again, twngo a cheap harmonica that I bought a few months ago, never played any kind of instrument so I compensated by trying to imitate some blues greats, of course I did not achieve much. Then I tried some videos where they teach to play harmonica but they were very theoretical. A few days ago I discovered you giving these master classes and I have to say wue was like a gift from heaven, you really are very good at teaching. Thank you
Thanks 😊
Great stuff! Thankyou!
that was perfect... you just added a beauty to my life (again)... please never stop teaching...
Thanks again Juzzie!🙌🏻
thanks for sharing your passion! regards from germany
great teaching loving it
I may never learn the harmonica, but I am glad I tried, because it led me to Juzzie
Thank you so much for your harmonica lessons. You are a natural and I find your lessons easy to follow 🙏
Absolutely loved this lesson
I really enjoyed this lesson, l can see myself using my shakers to jam
along with these rhythms, thank you for sharing.
Shakers are perfect for this lesson. Have fun
Thank you
Excellent man, smooth feelings ,Thank You for finally Helping find my inner Harmonica Player La Vida☮

Thank you for your reaction. I have followed many teachers but no klick and here in Holland i follow your lessons and finally i Learn. When you are in Holland I would like to shake your hand

I have 2 more questions, I am now a subscriber of yours but do not know how much and where I have to pay you. And how do I tune my harps after cleaning?
Many attempting to teach harmonica on RUclips, but your approach is unique. Just purchased your 67 lesson course for $18 US. So far only noodling on harp. Will be fun!
Thanks. Have fun with the lessons 🎶

Hi, Juzzie
I've been waiting, thanks for the time and effort! Music brings joy, the most important thing in life
Didn't know Juzzie also learned Indian classical musical instrument.
A fan from India❤️
Yeah I traveled to India in 1999 and learn the Sitar in Varanasi. Such an amazing adventure. One of the best things I’ve done for my music.
@@JuzzieSmithRUclips That's awesome. I was 3 years old then 😅
I just bought a harp and I’m loving your videos! Thanks so much for posting!
That’s great. Your welcome 😊
thank you so much!!! love it!! love you🤩
Hi Juzzie. Exercise 2 sounds like a great western tune from a italian western movie. It would nice to have your guitar play as backing track 🤠
Best regards from Germany
Thank you so much. Learned a lot!
Fantastic!
I LOVE your content Juzzie! I've watched so many other teachers(who are also great) but I got ahead of myself. So refreshing to go back and learn fundamentals in such an enjoyable way. You are fun man! Thanks from Perth
Thanks Mario 😊
You the best thanx man love your music
Hi Juzzie! Now my Harmonica (Mouthplay 😉) finally arrive! Just test it, sounds so really good! Sweet tones! Thanks for you do what you do! Im gona buy your course tonight when my payment come ❤
Thanks Peter. I’m sure you will enjoy the course and have fun jamming with the backing tracks. Thanks for your support 😊
You're amazing Juzzie, I love your music and your lessons and your calming presence, I'm 24 and recently had a heart attack from my drug problems, lost my $100k a year job, since then I've developed horrible anxiety and panic attacks for the first time in my life, got a harmonica and your lessons help calm me down, I was curious if you'd know how I could play that song John wayne by whiskey myers on harmonica, also I've been trying to follow along to some of your riffs, amazing absolutely amazing love your music
Hey mate. Glad your here and awesome the harmonica is helping your anxiety. Music also helps me stay calm. I’ll have a listen to that song and see how I go. Keep having fun learning 🎶
I enjoyed this video
Awesome man, loved it. I know I say it all the time but it’s true. I know sound bit creepy but it really cheers me up listening to you play and teach. You & family stay safe.
Thanks 😊
Absolutely brilliant 🙂. Thankyou 👍
I'm a new fan... great learning material
Thanks 😊
Are you from Australia? I’m from Sweden living as a retired in Thailand. I like your way to teach and you have a very good attitude. I can’t play harmonica, but guitar is my favourite. The rhythm you have fits me perfect. I like this bluesy sound.
Great your playing. I am from Australia 😊
Merci........
19:59 was a missed opportunity to break the 4th wall and talk to the viewer directly like in kids tv shows like "wow! You did so good! Struggled a little there in the middle but you're getting there, well done!" Like Dora the Explorer or something. Oh no, swiper is trying to steal all La Harmonicas!
been watching your videos and practicing and can hear improvement. Thank you so much for sharing your expertise and beautiful sounds!!!
That’s great. Keep it going 👍
Aqui do Brasil assistindo a aula, muito facil de compreender, mesmo sendo em outro idioma. Valeew.
Thanks 😊
Great thank you.
Dude! you are awesome! Thanks.
Algocommi Megaaa like 🍀👍🍀
Greetings from The Netherlands Juzzie! Would love to see you live, you're one of two people who inspired me to play my harmonica ^^
@Juzzie
Your thumbnail reminds me SO MUCH of Ben Foster as Charlie Prince in "3:10 To Yuma"😂
Juzzie mate, I dont know if I enjoy learning new stuff as much as watching you after so many years clearly still enjoy basic stuff, your smile says it all my man, keep it up!!!
Btw is there any alternative way to pay the 15 bucks without paypal for your listening course?
You always bring a smile to my face, Cheers Juzzie
Thanks mate. With the course payment you don’t need PayPal just select what card you use and it goes into my PayPal account. Hope this helps 😊
It would be nice to be able to see you from a frontal shot that way we could kind of see where your left hand is on the fret board and maybe able to guess what strings/chords and what fret you are playing at.
Hi Juzzie, thanks for the great video. Could you give some details on the other instruments used in this video? What kind of guitar do you use and how do you make the beat with your foot? Thanks!
I’ll work on a RUclips explaining my gear 👍
I'm not sure what you did in this video, I think it was the breathing and me just playing along. Something just ticked!
Then I tried to juggle a follow with the harmonica to your older videos, didn't go so well 😂
Excellent stuff!
That’s great. Love that feeling 😊
Hella Yeah man just found you and yor music .. respect ..
Thanks 😊
Hi Juzzie, this is fabulous (as always). I've got a handle on the harmonica part, but would really like to be able to add in some simple guitar at the same time. I am even more of a novice in guitar, I recognise and can play parts of the G and C chords in the first example, but when you start going up the neck of the guitar I'm getting a bit lost and can't quite work out which notes you are playing at the start of the bar. I know I will be able to work it out eventually, but its going to take time. Next time you do one of these, could you include some tab for the guitar bits or just mention what notes you are playing?
And maybe something on chuka chucks some time in the future? Joel's tutorials are great, but I would love to see something delivered in your style.
Thanks Andrew. I’ll work on some Gtr tutorials as getting asked a lot. Also simple Chuka Chuk grooves 😊
@@JuzzieSmithRUclips That's awesome, I'm looking forward to it!
This is so amazing. I will definitely try. Sir is there a link where I can download the backing track?
Thanks. I don’t have a backing track. You can just jam along on RUclips. I might look into creating backing tracks for practice 👍
Greetings from Germany.
Thanks for this video. This is very helpful. I am just getting started and this is a very good introduction. I am curious about the rhythm sound. Where is that coming from?
Thanks. Great your getting started. My rhythm sounds come from samples I’m triggering with my feet from a Roland Spdsx 😊
@@JuzzieSmithRUclips thanks. I assumed that the SPD was being used but didn’t. Know you could trigger loops. It makes a big difference in the overall presentation. Thanks.
Hi Juzzie,
thank you for your great music.
Since I heard you playing harmonica and one man band I am keen to learn playing harmonica.
Is the Seydel 1847 Classic, Key C and Tuning Standard Richter the right one to start?
Thank you for yor answer.
Best wishes John
Hi John. Yep that’s the one. Same as what I’m playing in this video 😊👍
Thank you for your answer.
I Just ordered your harmonica lessons and the Seydel 😊
It works🤗💝🌱
My day just got SO much better! Great lesson. I dig you Hugely, Groovy One!
Thanks 😊
Another gold! Btw. I'm finishing your audio course - highly recommend it to everyone to check it out! :)
Thanks Karol. I appreciate your support and glad your enjoying the course. Keep Having fun 😊
great!
I discovered your channel today and I would like to thank you for your great content!
That's a verynice telecaster you've got there, is it a Fender?
Thanks. It’s a hand made guitar I found in a second hand shop 😊
If you could make some longer recordings/videos with only looped beats (what you play on the guitar) for us to practice the techniques, this would be so useful. Just an idea 😁
Thanks Maja. Already thinking how is best way to do this. Will work on it 😊
