[Harp-L] Rhythm Road



Hello Harmonica Friends,
I am currently on tour with the Little Joe McLerran Quartet. We are on/ The Rhythm Road: American Music Abroad/, a program organized by Jazz at Lincoln Center for the US Department of State. We are touring the Arabian peninsula. We made history earlier this week when we played a public concert of American Blues music at the King Fahd Cultural Center in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Usually, public concerts are forbidden, and it has been almost a hundred years since there has been non-religious American music played in public. We had an audience of 1000 people, both men and women. It was groundbreaking!
