Hi Guys, thought I would share this vid from YT with you.
I have seen Johny Hewitt a few times now and spoken to him at length about his playing. He IMHO has a great feel for the harp and just loves to play. If you get a chance to see him then I strongly recommend you do.
They are both in different bands and get together as a duo to perform around the UK.
Check out http://www.myspace.com/tommyallenjohnyhewitt
and have a listen to his Nine below zero track I think its a great song to learn.
Hope you like the vid.

Russ, was this from this year's Colne? I didn't manage to catch Tommy/Johnny this time anyway. I emailed you a couple of times prior to the festival to see if you were going along - have you changed contact details?

Hi Paddy,
Yeah it was from this years Colne Blues Festival but I sadly did not get there and went to see Tommy and Johny locally near Oxford and they said there was this rare clip of them on YT. I have tried several times to get them on Video but they always seem reluctant to let me shoot them. I WILL get them and share Johny's tone to the masses as I think its very distinctive.
My details have not changed but my pc went down a while ago and I lost it all. I can remember saying I could not make it this year but will in 2011.

Great cover of Go Blind by the way

that first vid sounds good. But anybody notice how the guitar player kind of ruined the harp player's intro by slowing the tune wayyy down?
