"I’m just emailing you to thank you for all of help and support over the past year.
It doesn’t seem that long ago that you interviewed me and I was proudly showing you my “Swan” harmonica.
At the time I had no idea how to play and was amazed to find that the draw notes were a serious part of the instrument and not just what happened when you sucked instead of blowing.
I felt deeply honoured when at the open mike, after patiently listening to my tune you stated that I could add the harmonica to the list of instrument that I can actually play – a proud moment for me.
I am quite pleased with my progress and hope to move into a more bluesey style over my second year, now that I’m starting take 2 .
I have sent two uploaded 2 videos of “Summertime” to celebrate my 12 month anniversary featuring my painful attempt and draw bending.
Once again, thank you for your help, encouragement, and direction.
Hopefully I may see you at the Festival."
