I work as a trio with Sir Rod & The Blues Doctors (SRBD) and as a duo, locally, with The Blues Doctors (Blues Docs). In either configuration, I'm be willing to travel to where the work is, including overseas.  

BOOKINGS:

§for USA/UK/Euro and all other bookings, please email Adam Gussow:  asgussow@aol.com

As an experienced teacher and lecturer, I'm also delighted to offer my services for harmonica-related teaching events:  clinics, workshops, and the like; the OMB format, in such cases, lets me deliver a self-contained, concert-ready set of music--often with the help of a local guitar player--to complement the instructional portion of the event.  I'm ready, willing, and able to travel.  If you think you've got a gig for me, please don't hesitate to ask!  You can contact me directly for solo work:  asgussow (at) aol (dot) com
