My harp is featured on a recent release from Carly King. She decided to try some amplified harp instead of the more typical acoustic harp on this song.
Sorry I can't post a free link, but it's not my call (just a sideman). I know it is on Spotify and Apple Music (and probably others) if anyone is curious.
Yes, it's Cash's Folsom Prison.

A nicely re-worked classic. The harp sounds great on its own and in context. Perfect example of tasteful grit in my mind. Congrats.

Well thank you.
The recording was done in layers, and I suggested to the producer that the vocal track go down before mine so I could play in a way that was sensitive/responsive to the vocal performance -- helped guide my playing. I did a few takes, and the producer and Carly made their mixing decisions.
(I think sometimes that the harmonica is TOO forward in the mix, but what the heck.)
