The HarpBeats

Buckeye Harmonica Festival 2010 ~ April 29, 30, & May 1, 2010

Phil and George will be in attendance all three days. You'll find us playing and jamming about the hallways, plus you'll see and hear the Friday night debut performance of the new HarpBeats.

We all thought that the (33rd annual) Buckeye Harmonica Festival 2009 was at the end of its run. However, thanks to the The Rubber Capital Harmonica Club (Akron Ohio) with the assistance of the Buckeye State Harmonica Club (Columbus Ohio), BHF will continue to go on! BSHC had hosted the festival in Columbus for its first 33 years, and now RCHC will host BHF 2010 in Akron, which was once America's tire capital. RCHC has a rich history for harmonica festivals themselves-Hilton-Quaker Square Mall in the spring, and St. John's Episcopal Church in the fall. George attended many of the RCHC festivals between the late 70's and mid-80's.
