Bill Barrett - Gypsy Jazz, Harmonica Techniques, Making it in L.A & Finding Your Own Voice
I had a great time talking with Los Angeles based Jazz chromatic harmonica player Bill Barrett. Bill is an Hohner endorsee and plays the CX 12. I dig his musicality, strong sense of rhythm, his sophisticated use of bending, switch corner and tongue blocking techniques. In this episode we are talking about his busy work as a sideman, advice for chromatic harmonica players, his life in LA and how to develop an original voice on the chromatic harmonica.
