I sometimes feel non-US players don't get the attention they deserve on the
main harmonica lists, so from time to time like to highlight world-class
players that many Americans may have barely heard of.
There are two brilliant young Scandinavian players that merit your
attention: Sweden's Filip Jers, and Denmark's Jacob Venndt. They are both
amazing technicians, great improvisers, multi-instrumentalists (especially
Jacob, who plays over 15 instruments to a high level), and well-schooled
reading musicians who have a deep grounding in classical & jazz music
theory.
Schooled as a bass player, Jacob plays all the harmonica types, but
specialises on his own swinging style of jazz chromatic. Filip started on
diatonic and won the World Championship a few years ago, but now also plays
excellent chromatic.
They are doing some great gigs in their respective countries, and have a
good presence on Youtube. Check out these recent videos:

JACOB VENNDT (he plays all the instruments on this one)

Both are amazing pieces in their different ways. Hopefully these links will
encourage you to explore further!
Cheers,
Brendan Power
