Andrew Alli came to Hill Country Harmonica a few years back--you can find a video or two; a harp amp test--and showed impressive spirit. Youth spirit, I'd call it. He's been working on his stuff ever since, and he's starting to draw notice. He's trying to take the common stock, including some third position licks that many here will recognize, and do his own thing with them. Please post clips and thoughts.

Here's the HCH video:





There's some blues spirit going on here.

Saw Andrew at a local little jam when he was touring Down Under 3 years ago. He got his turn near the end of the night and blew everyone away.

he does have a great sound and feel, I really like how he plays. That's the stuff I like to hear..

I will say it's a little funny to hear the Stormy Monday changes behind Nine Below Zero but guitarists will do that!

I found his playing on the new Blues for Big Walter album to be sublime. You can tell when somebody really loves BW.

I see he's teaching a class on 12 bar blues next week at Davis & Elkins College for blues and swing week.
