Guitar Artistry of Harry Manx - Bosworth Music

Harry Manx has been called an "essential link" between the music of East and West, creating musical short stories that wed the tradition of the Blues with the depth of classical Indian ragas. He has created a unique sound that is hard to forget and deliciously addictive to listen to.
Born on the Isle of Man, Manx soent his childhood in Canada and left in his teens to live in Europe, Japan, India and Brazil. He honed his hypnotic live show on street corners, in cares, bars and at festivals. Bu it was Indian music that captured Manx and in the mid 80s he began his five year tutelage with Rajasthani Indian musician Vishwa Mohan Bhatt. He also received the figt of Bhatt's custom-made, self-designed Mohan veena-a 20-stringed sitar/guitar.that was the caralyst for Harry to forge a new path with his now signature east-meets-west style of music.
Harry has performed across Canada, into the USA, Australia, France, Singapore and Spain. He has appeared at festivals, world-class theatres, concert halls and infamous Blues clubs around the globe. Playing the Mohan Veena, lap steel and guitar, Harry quickly envelops the audience into what has been dubbed "the Harry Zone" with his warmvocals and the hauntingly beautiful melodies of his original songs.
"The live performances have become the most exciting part of the music business for me, "Harry says. "And it's not only the playing; it's all the other magic that happens between myself and the audience. My goal has always been to draw the audience as deep as possible into the music."
Blending Indian folk melodies with the blues, a sprinkle of gospel, and compelling grooves, Manx's "mysticssippi" flavour is evocative and hard to resist.
