thanks for this video! I have to say this is WAY more than just a "how to play happy birthday" tutorial - I used this video these last few days for practicing getting clean notes (at first I thought my harmonica was defective but it was just my technique - now I'm 90% of the way there), so this is a "Harmonica Techniques Rosetta Stone" so to speak, where you can see a sample of what each "stage" from beginner to advanced is. bravo.
Awesome, Luke! I learned so much more than the basic birthday song! I'm just working through the bending section of your Beginner-to-Boss lessons and this is a good complement to bending lessons.
@@Harmonicacom Me too! Had a beard too when I was young. Now I'm shaving. Yes, like your lessons. Helped me much on my way to learn harmonica. Thanks a lot!! 👍🤙
Don't you worry, this is normal problem that most beginners experience! 👌🏼 1.) Let gravity lower your jaw so that it's totally relaxed and in a nice "aw" vowel shape, your teeth should be far apart from each other 2.) Keep the back of your tongue down, like it is when you yawn. Make sure it's not in the "Kk" zone (how your tongue is when you say a "Kk" consonant.) 3.) Nice steady, GENTLE, airflow. Most beginners (and many intermediate and advanced players) use WAY to much pressure. Hope that helps! 😎 Aloha, Luke
My friend has played taps with his trumpet for 1200 funerals , i was wondering what harmonica would harmonize with his trumpet. I think the trumpet is in the key of G. any help would be appreciate. I am new to the harmonica.
I have east top free blue C. I need to do blow draw clean note like yours. How to do it.. Coz when I get draw blow I always pick up the next note always.. Even when I close the gap between two notes. Help!
The advice on how to draw on hole eight alone is worth the upvote! Thank you Luke!
Sweeeeet. You're very welcome. 👌🏼
Thanks a lot for this. My friends birthday is coming up and i was thinking of wishing her happy birthday on harmonica. The timing couldn’t be better.
Woo hoo! LMK how it goes...

Question I am in your course I am practicing and when I play my draws get messed up is there a lesson on draw issues
Don't you worry, this is normal problem that most beginners experience! 👌🏼
1.) Let gravity lower your jaw so that it's totally relaxed and in a nice "aw" vowel shape, your teeth should be far apart from each other
2.) Keep the back of your tongue down, like it is when you yawn. Make sure it's not in the "Kk" zone (how your tongue is when you say a "Kk" consonant.)
3.) Nice steady, GENTLE, airflow. Most beginners (and many intermediate and advanced players) use WAY to much pressure.
Hope that helps! 😎
Aloha,
Luke
Luke
U r mind blowing

Ask him what key he plays it in. If he's playing in G, then a G harmonica. 👍🏼

Lukes cool. Funny guy

Is it weird I learned how to bend, do vibrato, and other tricks. Before I learned how to play single notes?
A little. But I like it!!
