We ARE going to have a harmonica festival in Birmingham, Alabama - 2006!

Over 300 were involved in the original Birmingham Harmonica Festival in 
1989.
This to be a great mix of the music of the American South.

We plan to represent all of these harmonica/music styles:

* Classic "Harmonicats" Stylings
The Society Boys Harmonica Trio
Al and Judy Smith - The Hotshots
with Harmonica Junction
Frank Warner, Bud Boblink & Don Klein
* Blue Grass
Buddy Greene of the Gaither Music Reunions
Jerry Ryan of "Three On A String"
Tommy "Toes" Bounds
* Country
Charlie McCoy and his band from Nashville
* Delta Blues
MadCat & Kane
* Other Great Diatonic and Blues
Joe Filisko
Pat Ramsey
Mike Bruce
and Others
* Dixieland "New Orleans Style" Jazz
* Old Time Cajun
Jerry Devillier from Eunice, Louisiana
* Traditional spirituals

We think the "Southern Music" theme will make what
we have planned absolutely distinctive from any past
event associated with SPAH

Someone already stated, "It sounds like you want
religious music." Our response is simple: “No, but it is
very hard to take religion out of a southerner."
If it is part of who the performer "is", it will not be out
of place at this festival.
