[Harp-L] Harmonica Collective Expert Guides - RJ Mischo



Jason Ricci expounds on RJ Mischo, who will be one of six Expert Guides at the Spring 2013 gathering of the Harmonica Collective, April 24-27, in Indianapolis:

====

Singer/harmonica
player RJ Mischo began his music career over 20 years ago in Minneapolis. He
worked with the areaâs legends of the blues scene like Muddy Waters alumni Mojo
Buford and Sonny Rogers, as well as Percy Strothers and Milwaukee Slim. RJ then
led his own groups and gained a reputation as one of the region's top blues
acts. RJ was nominated in several categories by the Minnesota Music Academy and
in 1996 won the award for Best Harmonica Player. 

Anyone who has
ever seen RJ knows not only is he a powerhouse who holds his own next to guys
like Kim Wilson, Rick Estrin, Annie Raines, Gary Primich and others. They also
know that this man can lead a band! RJ will teach you how to talk to a band,
any band. How to get that drum beat you want, end that song. You don't have to
know tons of theory to study with RJ! He'll bring it to you on a real down home
blue collar level! This guy is a work horse, touring all year, teaching,
singing, and playing his heart out with different bands and different amps,
sometimes on every gig. RJ knows how to make it work for you. 
RJ has GIANT tone. He's a real deal tongue blocking
blues man and he's the Harmonica Collectiveâs collective answer for all our
blues guys. Some big famous players can be elusive in their teaching styles,
saying, "Just play it," or "Listen to more Walter," or
" I just kinda learned it through osmosis," etc. RJ is able to
explain these things without going too far in the opposite direction with long
drawn out music theory explanations and chalk board glyphs. Heâs our ace in the
hole for all you blues players looking for a little push ahead without the
"Giant Steps".
