In the late 1970s harmonica player PT Gazell recorded "Pace Yourself", released by Sugar Hill Records and featuring Ricky Skaggs and Jerry Douglas. It remains one of the seminal bluegrass harmonica recordings. With his Nashville based band "The Side Effects", PT is now one of the leading diatonic harmonica jazz exponents, and is the face of Seydel Harmonicas. Through Seydel he produces the "Overtones" series of harmonica interviews, past subjects include blues pioneer Charlie Musselwhite and Jimmie Fadden from the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band.
The latest Overtones episode features an interview PT did with me last August at the SPAH harmonica convention in Tulsa Oklahoma. I explain my approach to bluegrass harmonica, and describe how Seydel created a harmonica model based on my Major Cross tuning system.

Nice interview, Seydal configurator is a great innovation. Also great point about frictionless buying flow and UX.
Go the alternate tunings!
